All company's must not be using the anti static wrap as my 2900xt came in a box with foam around it and no anti static bag either, not just the first one but second one also....

Is there really a reason to worry about there not being an anti static wraper? I mean ram doesnt come in an anti static wrap. At least any of the ram iv ever bought. I think the risks would be minimum as theres nobody touching the card, correct?
I dont know why they ever bother selling cards that only have one dvi slot anymore.... This is a shame of a card. Let me re phrase that. I dont know why they even bother coming out with "new" cards that dont have dual dvi ports. -------------------- c2d e8400 @ 4.05ghz! 24/7 1.38vcore 450FSB bad batch! stock right now|lapped TRUE w/ kaze fan|2x 2gb G.Skill ddr2 1100 5-5-5-15 2.2v|Gigabyte x38-ds4|XFX GTX 260 black edition|Enermax Liberty 500w|2x Seagate 320 gb 7,200 rpm 16mb in raid 0|Seagate 400gb 7,200 16mb|AuzenTech Xplosion [url="http://profile.xfire.com/crazy4life"] ![]() |

Yea I bought a cheap nvidia based card the other day for a Linux Folding only rig and it was like this one, one DVI port and one VGA but it was less than $40.00 also... -------------------- ![]() |
