which gfx card is better? - Page 2

I think they are both refurbished.
Should I trust refurbished...
I've had some refurbished items. But I'd rather wait and get the brand new 7900GS with lifetime warranty.
But this card is way better in benchmarks. It even beats the 7900gt.

i've had bad experiences with refurbished so thats why i changed to the 7900 gs KO after i found out it was refurbished....

what happened with the refurbs...did they burn out?
Did you try overclocking them?

lol it was a video card... i overclocked it a bit... it was a radeon 9250... i overclocked a little bit and it stopped functioning... but they gave me this new one, as a sorry....
