You just bought a 128 bit version of the 9800 Pro, and it looks like its clocked at 9800 NP speeds. Do a 3dmarks 03, I'm curious as to see how much worse this performs compared to a normal one.

The ad clearly states you were bidding on a 256bit card...you got burned if thats infact a 128bit card.

I hate Ebay.

Its so easy to hoodwink people and at best Ebay will close shop on the seller's account, whom will open another one 5 minutes later.

Plus all the pricks on there know that no one is giong to bother taking them to court cause it costs hundreds of times more to do that than to get your cash back.

Sorry to see you get burned. 8(

The seller has offered a full refund, so it turning out ok. I mentioned his 100% reputation, and that because of that, i didn't think he purposely tried jiping me.

With 3D Mark 2003 i get a score of 3872 with a:

AthlonM2500+ (2300 mhz @200x11.5)

Stay away from E-bay! Stick to brick and mortar shops where you can see with your own eyes what you're buying and if there's a problem just bring it back! I never buy stuff on-line as it's to easy to get ripped off, know what I'm sayin'?:beer:

I almost buy all my stuff online and have never been ripped off. Sounds like the seller is making it right, and may very well be an innocent party and another "victim" of the 128bit so-called "9800 pro".
