Gigabyte SOC Tri fan gtx 470 208.99 Conus.
Okay found out today that per Gigabyte this non ref Super Over Clocked GTX 470 isn't compatible with my Gigabyte AM3 790xt motherboard. The driver for Vista 64 conflict with my chipset so I never got it to install correctly. So now I'm forced to sell it. It is in perfect shape and will come with all it's original accessories and box, plus the guy I bought it from sent me the invoice and never registered it , so the warranty is intact for whoever buys the card. I will also allow you to return the card if you have any trouble at all. Again according to Gigabyte there is zero wrong with this card it is a conflict with my motherboard and not just this card but the non ref Gigabyte gtx 460 aswell. P.S. this card retails for 300.00 shipped.
I will be putting this on ebay so if you want it get it soon. ![]() ![]() Model Brand GIGABYTE Series Super Overclock Series Model GV-N470SO-13I Interface Interface PCI Express 2.0 x16 Chipset Chipset Manufacturer NVIDIA GPU GeForce GTX 470 (Fermi) Core Clock 700MHz Shader Clock 1400MHz Stream Processors 448 Processor Cores Memory Effective Memory Clock 3348MHz Memory Size 1280MB Memory Interface 320-bit Memory Type GDDR5 3D API DirectX DirectX 11 OpenGL OpenGL 3.2 Ports HDMI 1 x HDMI DVI 2 x DVI General Max Resolution 2560 x 1600 RoHS Compliant Yes Cooler With Fan System Requirements Minimum 550W or greater system power supply with two 6-pin external power connectors Power Connector 2 x 6 Pin HDCP Ready Yes Features Features GIGABYTE WINDFORCETM 3X Cooling Design GPU Gauntlet Sorting Technology Ultra Durable VGA+ High Quality Components Anti-turbulence Inclined Dual Fan OC Guru – Graphic Card Smart Tuner Manufacturer Warranty Parts 3 years limited Labor 3 years limited Oh!!!!! almost forgot also included is a free download coupon for Mafia II My heat ware is under trt740 Heatware is http://heatware.com/eval.php?id=64195 I accept paypal.

What kills me is my motherboard is a Gigabyte and every other card MSI gtx 460,Galaxyand Asus gtx 480's , XFX 5870, Asus 5850 and works fine with this board but the two non ref Gigabyte Fermi cards won't work with my motherboard. Heck one I unboxed sealed from Micro Center today and it won't get past the boot screen. It will load in safe mode or prior to the drivers loading but once the drivers load bam it freezes and per Gigabyte it's my drivers , Vista and this motherboard not playing together right. However they said both cards are fine, and the guy I bought this card from removed it two days ago from his SLI rig and states it worked great. I believe him, I'm 99.99 percent sure the card is fine and it is my motherboard. The chances of getting two bad cards is very slim. So I'm back to my 8800 gt (which works great) and boots fine.

Well I never got this card installed correctly so and I don't like selling things I cannot test on TPU. Second Bill is a friend and trading partner from this forum and if he has a single problem at all he can RMA the card with the receipt to Gigabyte or two give it back to me with a no hassle return. Thats how I roll lets leave this thread open and see how it works out. P.S my trusty 8800 gt driver crashed about 3 seconds ago. I think I have some strange issues here. I wonder if my PCI X16 slots could be dying. sold to BILL better yet lets close this thread and let Bill follow up here anyone ever hear of trouble with GIGA SOC not ins... I bet he does better than I did. I used to love Vista but now it is killing me AH!!!!!!! Last edited by trt740; Dec 2, 2010 at 01:40 AM. |
