THAT's RIGHT Ladies and Gentlemen: it's a STICKER on top of a STICKER.
We've all been fooled!! :slapass:
Ahahahahah lol. Rebadged ATI's.
Omfg, we´ll gonna die!!!
Is there a Pricedifference?
this wise hugley widespread on the x1900's
the sapphire I card I had, underneath was the same as the ATI ones as were many peoples connect3d's among others, strangely enough I havnt brought myself to tearing the cool HIS sword sticker off my card.
hahahah they literally take that "rebadge" foreals..hahah
didnt even bother to put a good effort to it :slapass:
nothing new.
a long time ago i had a Creative geforce 5900XT wich had a MSI sticker below the Creative one.
btw who out there does make their own cards in Nvidia and ATI land?
Buy any Pny graphic card, remove the label and you'll see a MSI label under it.
From MSI's own personal Not good enough bin
my Powercolor X800XL was an BBA ^^
i believe sapphire builds all the ati cards, bba's too. they're all the same. i prefer sapphire cards coz they're always the cheapest somehow.
They actually manufacture the cards - so ATI and all the other rebadgers are paying Sapphire and marking them up from there.
Actually Sapphire makes ATi card samples.Quote:

Um... I have a Sapphire X800GT, below the sticker, there is the original ATI one...
i got a PNy 7800Gt wich does 515/1250 with a zalman.Quote:

My Sapphire 9800XT has an BBATi 9800XT sticker under the Sapphire sticker on the hsf. :)
I read somewhere that Sapphire is possibly ATi's retail division?
My friends x1900xtx,
ATI on a Sapphire on a ATI.

I think these are made by saphire in the same place.
It may be that the coolers are supplied with the stickers on them from another source then saphire just stick there sticker ontop of the ATI one.
Wouldnt supprice me if all saphires cards were like this. Its not going to be cost effective to peel off the ATI stickers if they are supplied like that.
On my old MSI 6800GT (first revision, before they made their own coolers for it, AGP), it wasn't just the fan sticker, it was the entire cooler's sticker... Nalu underneath some wierd centaur-thingie :)
(pretty good oc'er though, 430/1130 on a VF700-cu)
Best Regards :toast:
agreed.Quote:

voila, you have a branded card *shrug*
and add their own sticker with their isbn/model name ;)Quote:
