Bad Card
11/13/2011
This review is from: XFX Radeon HD 5850 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card w/ Eyefinity HD-585X-ZAFC
Pros:
None - unfortunately it took me almost a year to realize it's defective.
Cons:
Had problems with the card since day one - always thinking it was memory timings or other voltage issues that was causing the blue screens or freezes of the PC. I had a friend that I game with tell me to check DirectX and I finally saw that it's only operating with 753MB instead of the full 1024MB ( 1 gig ). Tells me that the card never was operating at peak efficiency and likely the card was bad from the beginning. I'm now dealing with XFX to get some support but having to wait over a WEEK to get a response is horrible. At this rate I will not buy another XFX and possibly not go through Newegg for the bad card shipped out.
Manufacturer Response:
Please forward your support ticket number to Neweggsupport@xfxforce.com so we can help get you up and running ASAP! Thanks
