I've heard from resellerratings.com that OCSystems hasn't been a good place to buy from.....

anyway have fun with your card

Their preoverclocked stuff is crap, and that all I know about them. My friend bought a system and it was terribly unstable and only managed to get into windows half of the time. He sent it back for a replacement and the new one was even worse.

its a coin toss but one worth tossing here I think! I will keep this thread updated with the results. I have ordered once from them before and while shipping took a bit longer than I expected the goods were all fine.... keep ya posted and if its a lemon there's always RMA with them or sapphire

My friend bought a 9700PRO from ocsystem and it froze up about 1/3 into 3dmark01/03. Constant problem, he sent it back and it took them about 6 months to send him one back.

Then got mad and paid $356 shipped from newegg. Shipping confirmation, fedex tracking number yesterday. Card should arrive at US address on Tuesday then I HOPE by Wednesday it'll be in the mail headed my way.....

Then this morning I find this Just my luck.....

If i were you Shuki, i would rather pay up the extra 60+ bucks from newegg, cause ya' know why?? i've heard tons of bad comments 'bout CompUSA......and personally, i believe those.......plus their site is ONLY rated as one star whereas Newegg has 5 out of 5........

Shuki, dont take this the wrong way little buddy, Because I'm not trying to sound like a butt!
But......."theres always a but" You need to read the news section a weeee little bit more. Dom posted about the compusa deal like a week ago!

But (another but!

) congrats on your new card

at least maybe you can sell your 9700 Pro like you said and get some of your cash back

I ordered RAM from OCSystems. It was advertised as 2-2-2-5 but my system continously crashes at those settings. The SPD is set at 2.5-3-3-7 and my system is stable at that setting.

They took a long time to ship and will not respond to my emails concerning the fraudulent labeling of their RAM. I would NOT recommend buying anything from them.

VariatioN · Sep 1, 2003, 04:02 PM

the ppl who get jipped from ocsystem are starting a lawsuit...head over to reseller ratings and find the guy thats starting it...maybe ill buy ram from them and join in on the lawsuit. will be fun to say Dear, ocsystem
you are fucked...about 50ppl are sueing you and guess what me too! so suck my dick and have fun in jail retards....

u shoulda got it from compusa...317shipped with tax...wtf are you talking about compusa sux? they own...super fast shipping too.

well in the end I bought from good ol newegg. Bought a Sapphire 9800 pro OEM for $356 shipped. Then paid an extra $30 shipping here to Israel. Good news is card arrived in great working order and I can see a difference over the 9700 pro. I boxed my 9700 pro up and shipped it off today for $220 shipped to US. Only thing left to do now is the OC

if you'd like to follow along please have a look here
