Gainward CARDEXPERT GeForce3 PowerPack?

[Milkweed]

I want to purchase a Gainward G3 video card. I wanted to ask if any of you good folks could answer these question for me. Is there really a big difference from the G3 Gainward card (Regular I guess) and the Gainward G3 GOLDEN SAMPLE? What the heck is the Golden sample anyway? I could use some advice. Thank you in advance for your help!

"golden samples" are hand picked an gauranteed to run at 10% over default core/memory clock speed. as for the actual difference between "non-golden sample" and "golden sample", there really is none, other than the yield of the particlar chip.

my golden sample runs at 250/540 (which is above avg); your mileage may vary depending on the chip yields. you might take a look at this thread to see the overclocking results of others in this forum.
