Er..people are returning without even trying to overclock their cards? WTH? For all you know that ram could go higher than samsung. Jeez I'd at least try the stuff before I passed judgment on it being a "bad batch" of cards.

As soon as you fully open the package, a restocking fee comes in. Or you'd be lucky to even return it then at all. So i'll just see what other people are doing. It's doubtful that it's better than the samsung though.
No one knows if they will get any new ones in but it sounds like they will have a lot of them in their refurb section soon.Originally posted by: Blackroot
They sold out, damn, i was going to order one too, hopefully they will come in, is there a chance that will get a new load of them, or was that the last of 9800np's?

The way I see it, Newegg pulled a bait and switch. The card they sent is not what I ordered. There is no way in hell I'm going to eat a 15% restocking fee if I decide to send it back.
I went through the buy.com fiasco. They don't want to start down that road.

The performance of the card is important but the principle of the thing is even more important to me, I ordered a specific product from Newegg. They shipped something else.
The Ati card will have a higher resale value than the Sapphire card. Right from the start I have lost value on this deal.

Yes, the disclaimer says newer versions may ship, not a different version.
Look at these two differnt cards and tell what, besides the price is different.
ATI SAPPHIRE RADEON 9800 PRO 128MB DVI/TV 8X AGP RETAIL
SAPPHIRE OEM RADEON 9800 PRO 128MB DVI/TV 8X AGP Video Card
Now please get over it, they are different cards.
I'll see on Tuesday what sort of store Newegg is based on how they handle this mistake of theirs.
