9700 Retail Question

[Thraxen]

OK, I'm a bit pissed off. I just received a Radeon 9700 from Buyaib.com. It is supposed to be the retail box, but they shipped it without the box! It just came bubble wrapped in a plain brown box with some cables and an installation disc. Other than the box, did they cheat me out of anything? Is anything else supposed to be packed with the retail version? :|

[EDIT] *sigh* I just was looking at the pictures at NewEgg to see what was supposed to be in the box and noticed that my install disc says "Sapphire" on it. Is this card different than the standard ATI retail box?

Yours is OEM.

No Sapphire is ATI's new way of saying OEM, they must think changing the name will fool quite a few people, don't be mad though, if you got the cables and the dvi/vga converter, you got a packaged deal equivilent to a retail card.

So is the OEM version clocked the same as retail?

Yea I also got the OEM version from Newegg, even though the site clearly said retail box...and I didn't get the software for DVD playback and stuff.
