Sparkle vs other brands

[Gezza]

Hi guys

Theres a special on for the Sparkle Geforce GTX 260 for +- R1500(excl). Will post the link as soon as I get it.

What I would like to know is if the Sparkle is a good buy or is it crappy quality.

I'd imagine they're fine. What's the warranty like?

 

[chickenbeef]

They're a good brand, pretty well known in America

 

[Gezza]

well not really sure. Its from esquire. R1499(excl).

not bothered about the warranty. Just wondering if Sparkle is a good brand or not. Oh and its the 895mb DDR3 one.

It's the new esquire special. They emailed it out. They also have the 250 for R1k exc.

Yeah only got the email...from a friend. The price is too good to pass but with rAge around the corner im not so sure.

Should I wait or go for it?

 

[scalywag1]

yeah true rAge is right around the corner but thats a good price for a 260 especially if its the 216 version, most local retailers are selling that card for between 2300 - 2700 pls send me the email wanna check it out [email protected] .. ty

I had a sparkle 7800GTX ran it from the day I bought it to the day I upgraded never gave me a moments trouble. (ran it for just over 3 years.)

I even over clocked it a little at the end.

Sparkle cards look cool, would take a Sparkle card over an Inno3d or POV one any day
