Which GF4 Ti should i get ?

[Desperado84]

i was gonna get the Leadtek 4400 for $189 (Newegg)
but i read reviews for the Albatron 4200 S $184 (also Newegg)
they both overclock really high if i remember,
so any advice, i want to get my order soon
thanks

i didnt know there was an albatron 4200 s

there's a 4200p, which has 128mb ram, and a normal 4200 (64mb).
But, as long as its the turbo (ie albotron 4200p turbo) , get it.
its better than the leadtek

 

[Desperado84]

that's probably what i meant
the P
sorry,
but are you sure it's better than the Leadtek ?
Leadtek has an amazing cooling system

How large is your monitor?

What resolution do you run your games at?

What games do you like to play?


BHD

The Albatron is one of the Best if not the best Overcloking GFX card on the Market, i saw hin on some reviews at speeds like : 305/730.
Here it is on Guru 3D
Its GPU Sink is a Pure Cooper as opposed to the Giant Aluminioum Sink that's on the leadtek.
Its a very good Overcloker, but If you want ViVo and/or the Hardware Monitoring then get the Leadtek its a very Good OverCloker too, I saw him on some very high Speeds...
get wat costs less I think...

the albatron turbo is going to be better than the leadtek, but avoid newegg they seem to have a bad batch of these that dont oc to 4600 speeds as newegg says they do...

i have a 19 inch monitor and would like to play games at 1280*960 (that's my desktop res. anyway)
as i stated they both cost THE SAME. so price isn't important, but i really want to get the best one.
if i don't get it from Newegg, then where do you recommend ?
thanks for the advice guys

 

[Desperado84]

i think i'm gonna end up getting the Leadtek, cause lots of people have been having problems with the Albatron's.
i just don't wanna risk it.
also, anyone know where to get the Leadtek 4400 VIVO ?
cause Newegg has the regular,(not VIVO)
another question, anyone know where to get a Gainward 4400 ?
cause i really want the 8layer PCB (like the 4400/4600) cause they overclock a lot better
thanks

 

[Desperado84]

well, does anyone know where to get one of those cards, or should i just get the Leadtek, (i don't wanna risk getting the Albatron now)

 

[The-Fox]

did you ever heared about Pricewatch
I checked for you for a good price on the Ti 4400 (VIVO), the 4600 dosent worth the Bucks and here is what I found:
Leadtek G4 128MB A250 TI4400 VGA DDR W/TV OUT: for 179$ Including Shiping at store called MWAVE.COM
and I found the cheapest VIVO: Leadtek Winfast Geforce4/GF4 TI 4400 VIVO / TI4400 VIVO 128M/DVI/TV Retail Box, at 197$ at a store called nexthardwareshop.com.
they are both placed at CA...
now al you got to do is choose...

 

[Desperado84]

yeah, i looked there.
but i don't know anything about the LeadTek Vivo,
i don't know if it differs at all
i thought it would be the regular Leadtek with Vivo, but with other cards the vivo sometimes affects the overclocking, and i haven't seen a review to it, so i am a little worried,.
anyone got the Leadtek 4400 Vivo ?
