What I received:

First thing I noticed was rage3ds tweak program showing 230/230 in the overclocking tab... thought that should be 250/250... hmm strange.
Then I notice 3dmark 2001se was saying it only had 64MB memory...
Then I actually looked on the card and found the sticker. :|

Anybody ever exchanged parts with newegg? Do they by chance ship at the same time as you if not first? I'd really like to get this card on Friday if at all possible...
 
I'm going to give them a call @ 11:30 Eastern when they open... I'm sure I'll be able to get them to exchange it without any hassles. I'm just worried about them not being able to ship it out today so I can get it tomorrow due to some red tape or something. I'll ship them this card back overnight if they ship me the other one overnight. 🙂

Kinda sucks to order 6 or 7 things and have the one that is actually for you be wrong. :frown:
