I bought a Leadtek-Winfast TI4200 GC the other day.

What a great card, heaps of power and fast memory plus large wrap around heatsinks - both sides of card.

No need to OC but can be if required and stable. Exceeds the TI4400.

I know it's only DX8.1 but what the hell.

The newer cards a so expensive now and these TI4200 are cheap. I'll upgrade when the $$$ drop.

I'am not sure. I did read something about that ages ago.

Interesting, I'll have to do some research.

Makes me want to check my XFX Ti4200. I have been looking for a reason to take off the stock cooler and put AS5 on there... the stock cooler looks like it does the job... but I have not pushed the core past 290... the ram on this card sucks, but getting more out of the core would be nice...

The GF4Ti line is DX8.0 not DX8.1 . They still do just fine in most games, with BF2 being the first game NOT to support them because they can not do PS1.4, only PS1.1.

Many of them do OC well too. IMO 300/600 is the goal to shoot for that makes one a good OC'er or not. Asus and Gainward have some good ones, while Abit's seem to be aweful overclockers (at least the 2 I tried). I have an <A HREF="http://service.futuremark.com/servlet/Index?pageid=/orb/projectdetails&projectType=6&projectId=7676881" target="_new">Asus that does 320/640</A>, but it was not your average 4200 as it had a 4400 PCB/RAM.
