    Warning NewEgg ordering of Sapphire Video cards

    Let me count now and see what you think ;-) 1. Outer box seal broken. 2. Video Card had clearly been removed from anti-static bag as it was not wrapped properly. 3. Signs of the card being put into a case (screw marks etc). 4. Although I don't use the drivers on the DVD. The DVD had clearly...

    Warning NewEgg ordering of Sapphire Video cards

    Okay, didn't realize that. I thought with the volume they were getting direct from the source. And just to clarify: NewEgg pointed at the "vendor" not a distributor. They may get high volume items through distributors i.e. CPUs. But when someone talks about Vendor to me, I assume they mean the...

    After receiving a defective and used Sapphire 5870 Vapor-X from Newegg when ordering and paying $50 over MSRP pricing from NewEgg and express shipping. I got this message back from a supervisor who "investigated the issue": Net result two messed up weekends on a new system build. I expected...

    Sapphire Vapor-X 5870 Rev.2, very happy!

    Riddle, I did what they call an Emergency RMA, they shipped one out yesterday and it should arrive tomorrow with luck. They refunded the earlier shipping I paid. But the response from them has been slow and unapologetic. As in "Must have happened in shiipping" crap. I looked at the seal -...

    5800 series card - Any manufactured outside China

    Just curious, are all these cards made in China, or are some made in Japan and other places? I have an XFX 5850 and Sapphire 5870 Vapor-X both made in China. For the premium paid on these cards, I had hoped that they would be made in Japan.

    Sapphire Vapor-X 5870 Rev.2, very happy!

    I wish I could test mine fully. But NewEgg sent me an openbox. Paid a premium, paid 2nd day shipping and got a used card.

    What side monitors to match Dell U2410?

    What other monitors would be a good match on either side? I have to think there are some alternatives that work great.

    What side monitors to match Dell U2410?

    If I could get the U2410 for 480 I might bite. I guess I would need to talk to one of the CSRs at Dell. But isn't this overkill? Would I be better off with another make on the sides to save $$?? Thanks.

    What side monitors to match Dell U2410?

    Hello, long time lurker with my first post here. I have the Dell U2410 and was lucky enough to get one without many of the problems being reported here. I doubt I would be that lucky second time around. Anyway, I'm currently updating my system and will be getting either a 5850 or 5870...
