PS i posted that b4 reading this page, im glad Palit_Guy stoped by honestly, and if his boss reads this: This is the way to get to the hart of the gaming communit, as the post above and the pm i sent to pg say, word of mouth and honesty are FAR more powerfull then fake marketing bs and adverts.
as i have said b4, benchmarks are all well and good but many times they are done on systems that are nothing like what the avrage gamer is using, i mean WileE for example has a quad overclocked, thats not what a normal everday user/gamer would have, most gamers dont have anything close to that.
what would sell alot of people i know is if they could get some numbers of systems simlar to theirs with diffrent products, numbers that are done under real world conditions not 3dmark or bench demo's.
alot of sales is knowing what to say to talk up the good points of a product without giving somebody a faulse impression that they are getting the world.
example, the changes you have made and that jelly mess reccomended, honestly those where and are things i would have reccomended BUT most companys wouldnt think of changing to descriptions that are realistic because they think it would cost them sales.
as i stated in a pm i sent, i think palit would do well to get some CAD type users where LARGE fraim buffer is usefull, have them try the cards against what they have or against 256 and 512 mb versions of the same cards, then have them send you their experiances, use some as quotes on the product pages, this would show REAL WORLD USERS oppenions and experiances using the cards for something that they would be usefull for, as apposed to gaming where they are as you know just to slow.
talk up the good points, better cooling for the 8800gt and the 8800gt being ready for future games that will use more video ram.
its all about balance.
on thing i think would improve your site is adding a "products" link at the top of the page, maby even a pulldown like other companys use that links you to gfx cards, mobos, exct, the current main page isnt that user friendly, i have sent a few ppl there and had to tell them to hit site map to get to the products pages.
this isnt a hard fix, and it could really improve your image and help users find your goods easyer.
also talking to newegg/zipzoomfly/bzboyz and other such online stores and getting them to start carrying your products would be VERY helpfull to palit, you would beable to add ah "where to buy palit" button to each page that dirrects the person to a page on your website that has a list of the top companys offering your products for sale.
personaly i think the biggist one would be newegg in the states, if you can get them to carry your cards you gain alot of sales and name recognition, newegg is the place to get your name out there, and their rep is GREAT, even people from other countrys check newegg for products and prices, i would say that its the most known hardware site worldwide(if they only shiped worldwide or setup newegg in other countrys.....)
well i gotta go help make dinner, hope this info helps, and if you need ANYTHING feel free to conntact me, i will be happy to do anything i can to help an honest company out
Palit.
