"XELO GF4 Ti4200 64Mb Tv-out / DVI" for only 149€ @funcomp.

Awesome price, but I've never heard of that brand... should I take the risk?

Found 0 reviews, and 0 pics, only a pic of their GF4 Ti4400 (which looks ok to me).

probably just reference design in a custom made carton box

Grmbl, ik heb weeral pech. Kaartjes zijn vandaag toegekomen, en 't zijn Ti4600's ipv 4200. That's not what I payed for damnit! Nu ja, terugsturen dan maar.

huh ???

you got to be kidding right ?

9th August 2002, 21:27

pretend as if you received the ti4200..

9th August 2002, 21:32

houden die kaartjes

Hehe, gotcha

I received 2 Ti4200 and 1 Ti4600 BOX, but in the latter box was an ordenary Ti4200. Damnit! Thought i was very, very lucky for a second.

The boxes were poorly packaged though: 2 boxes were damaged: one card seems to be fine, but the other is DOA.

Third box seems undamaged so I'll leave the testing over to the buyer.

It seem to be very, very decent cards though! Looks like the one that's working runs at 330|580 with stock cooling and without artifacts. 580 Is not that special (rams run hot, maybe cool them?), but 330 stock cooled is far above 4600 standards. Yippie!

to bad for the DOA.

considering also buying one (end of august)... how much is the transport?

€17

DOA => apply for RMA or just ship it back?
