Leadtek video cards

lollerskater69 · Dec 21, 2008

Where can you find them for sale? I love the gundam design and I want one as my next card.

Doesn't look like you can even buy them in the US right now. I bought a Leadtek 8600gt last year from newegg. Now after a quick search on google and I can't find any reputable merchants selling their newer cards. Yet leadteks website says the are making the current GTX 260/280 cards. Very strange.

Hmm Leadtek cards are readily avaliable around here (just did a quick search on the GTX260/280)

Thats were they are located. They used to be able to buy all kinds of leadtek products in the US but not it looks like they are just selling their products in Asia, Australia, and Europe.

Probably from some websites you could but why would you want to import a video card when you can get an EVGA or XFX one here in the US for much less. These brands are much better than the leadtek and you will get it much sooner and for much cheaper since you don't have to import it. Its not like leadtek makes that great of cards anyways.

lollerskater69 · Dec 21, 2008

I just like it better.

HossHuge · Dec 21, 2008

what Leadtek card are you looking for?

I've had 2 Leadtek cards and never have a problem with either

lollerskater69 · Dec 21, 2008

260 gtx extreme +

HossHuge · Dec 21, 2008

I could talk to a shop here I know quite well and if you could somehow get them the $$. They could possibly send it.

lollerskater69 · Dec 21, 2008

depends how much also.

eidairaman1 · Dec 21, 2008

Their Niche of the Market must of changed.

HossHuge · Dec 21, 2008

but I have to agree it seems like to much work when you can buy a card from home. But if you have already made up your mind then who am I to stop you.

lollerskater69 · Dec 21, 2008

i guess. I am not even sure if i want a 260. I was mainly just checking.

+1 so not worth it in my opinion. Especially if you get a dud or the card brakes. There is no way leadtek is going to replace it. Evga or XFX would be much better choices because they are much better quality and if it does die you will have no problem getting it fixed/replaced. Getting a card just for the way it looks is silly, when its in your computer and being used you won't be able to see the sticker anyways.

eidairaman1 · Dec 21, 2008

I know this is somewhat off topic, but 2 Companies that are HK based, will RMA your cards, Sapphire and HIS, sapphire is quicker with RMA process, HIS has a little trouble.

The reason I am saying they will probably not accept if for an RMA is because leadtek does not sell the actual product in the US. You would have to ship the product directly overseas. Sapphire and HIS sell their products in the US and have places in the US to send your card to for RMA purposes.

The card i had Was Handled By a Subsidary of Sapphire and then it was shipped by them to Sapphire in HK, Sapphire HK then shipped a New Card to that SUbsidary which then they shipped the Card to me, i Basically dont like Dealing with Retailer RMA processes as that usually leaves you with another bunk card,

I disagree, I had an XFX graphic card which gave me problems, had to RMA it. I got the second card and had to RMA again. Now the 3rd card seems stable.

I now have a Leadtek GTX 260 Extreme + & I am having no problems with it whatsoever...
Leadtek is not worse quality than XFX or Evga, unless you can prove otherwise.

Sapphire is quicker?! they took two weeks to identify that yes, my gfx was broken like I said, and yes, I wanted a replacement.
