Got new GPU, thanks Wootware!

[InternetSwag]

The GPU I ordered was out of stock with Wootware so they upgraded me to a better one at the same price.

Went from entry level MSI 7850 to TwinFrozer 7850. They even threw in a R200 MSI Card reader for the inconvenience.

See attachments!

Went from 5670 to 7850.

Total Cost R2669.

Thanks to Ratwiz for helping me through the order and purchase and Wootwares friendly customer support!

Love it!!

However the pics are SO dark you might as well delete them.

Edit: Hang on, the Power Edition is R 2,579.00 from Wootware, and it's the one with proper voltage adjustment. As well as 50Mhz extra core clock if you're not into OC'ing.

I would've DEF gone for that one. Cheaper and better in all respects.
It has the Twinfrozr IV vs III.
"Power Edition series comes with triple overvoltage control of the GPU, memory and VDDCI"

huh? I bought this one http://www.wootware.co.za/msi-ms-r7...it-gddr5-pci-e-3-0-desktop-graphics-card.html

but got this one instead http://www.wootware.co.za/msi-r7850...dr5-pci-e-3-0-28nm-desktop-graphics-card.html

It was R2669 because of delivery I think.

Eh, either way. It beats getting it for R3000 at Chaos Computers. I'm happy.

Unf. the card you ordered is better than the one you ended up with.

950 vs 900 core
Twin Frozr IV vs III
Full Voltage Control vs minimal if any.
PCB stability plate that also covers memory.
Sliightly shorter as well if that counts for anything.

On a sidenote, Wootware will also be my choice for my soon-to-be GPU the MSI TF3 7950 OC. Rebeltech had it marked down to 3558 but seeing as its back up to 4k and Wootware still has it for 3.5k I'll get it from them. Sorry Rebeltech
