after having read Mr.Tweak's review on the leadtek ti4600, i was very surprised to see that he only managed to o/c to 317/689...this is a hideously low overclock...especially for a leadtek....and i'm very curious as to why....is it possible that leadtek have switched to using more shoddy ram and their cards? or was this card just very queer?:cheers:
No announcement yet.
badly overclocking leadtek ti4600?

Sounds like he just got an unlucky card. I also remember seeing somewhere that sometimes the heatsink doesn't sit flush with all memory chips. That might be a reason for the low memory overclocking since you can only go as high as the lowest performing module.

Hmmmm, Leadtek have been known for high quality, very overclockable vidio cards...But lately more then a few people have been getting cards that don't overclock to the full potential you'd expect from a leadtek video card. My guess is their just unlucky. But there is a chance that they've decided to use lower quality RAM or something along those lines....:confused:

well wiggo you can say what you want, it's a free country...meanwhile your "rare bad' which is an attempt to minimize my statement, was me returning 3 cards for two good ones. that's not rare do the math
i will however give leadtek the benefit of the doubt....maybe they have improved the product. i actually appreciate the behemoth of a heatsink they sport on the georce 4 4600 td:cool:

Well "infecto" you could just be lucky? or shall I say unlucky? Anyway about 3 or 4 of my friends have a leadtek card and none of them have ever had any pronblems. They also have had them in the past and no problems. I agree with Wiggo on this one. You just get the occasional bad ones...
