Chaintech AE78GT GeForce 7800 GT PCI-Express 256MB DDR3 Video Card w/HDTV-Out, Dual DVI & VIVO Retail


329? Why is this 30 dollars cheaper than all the others? is it any less of a card?

If you also notice it is running the stock clocks and possibly stock reference heatsink, so its essentially a barebones card.

So its just a run of the mill card not nerfed down or anything? Just not capable of OC without some modifications?

I'm not to big on OC myself so this is a good fit i believe. Atleast for the 300 bux.

Buyer Be Ware, not that Chaintech is a bad company, but I would personllaly stand clear of their video cards. I had a Chaintech 6600GT that would not run BF2. I had to completely change over to a 6800LE to run BF2.

I have to say Chaintech makes a excellent motherboard.

There's no reason why a Chaintech 6600GT cannot run BF2. Either you didn't configure everything up correctly, were expecting way too much performance out of the card, or the card was defective.
