For games @ RM39, we only have the titles here: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/783556/+220

We can't add anything more games simply because except for Dark_Steno & Zhen Wei, NOBODY come and buy the original games.
I don't think we can proceed with the latest titles on discounts if this is the reponse we get.

Hey guys,

Been awhile since I last posted. Our company is undergoing some major restructuring and we are busy with it.

We will start a new V2 by month end along with some important announcements. Thank you everyone for choosing and supporting Gainward.

Effective 1st November, 2008, our new office will be located in the address below:

NETRAID SDN BHD
2nd Floor, Kompleks Penchala,
No.50 Jalan Penchala, Seksyen 51
46050 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia.

TEL: 603-77812987
FAX: 603-77813877

All handphone numbers will remain the same.

Correct bro, they are different in the sense Gainward 4870 GS offer 4 outputs: Display Port, HDMI, DVI and VGA while Palit Sonic 4870 only has 2 DVIs and 1 Display Port. Other than the specs, Gainward 4870 GS comes with Free 3DMark Vantage!!




IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

NETRAID PART OF SCANART GROUP EFFECTIVE 1ST NOVEMBER 2008

We are pleased to announce that SCANART DATA SYSTEM (M) SDN BHD, the distributor for Abit, Galaxy, GeCube, Fuji Xerox, CNet, Panasonic, Asus and etc has bought over NETRAID SDN BHD effective 1st November, 2008. Scanart also owns SDS Distribution (distro of Gigabyte, Sunbeam, Tuniq, Deepcool).

Therefore all products (Gainward, Albatron, Digisound, JVC & InfoSmart) distributed by NETRAID SDN BHD will be taken over by SCANART DATA SYSTEM (M) SDN BHD effective 1st November, 2008.

All warranty claim and RMA will be handled and serviced by Scanart Technical Department with nationwide branches and service centers.

The will be a new moderator/owner of this Club when we launch Version 2 soon.

All dealers and customers of the brands mentioned above will benefit from the strengths, coverage and vast experience of both companies in this merger.

Well, that's coz u haven't seen the Gainward one yet...

Taking votes now (for those considering Gainward 4830): you guys want a cheap version or a GS version. Can only choose one! Remember, this vote will count as total feedbacks to Gainward. For 4830 GS, need to wait at least a month (end Nov), but I can tell you it will be a blast with cool temp.

Our Gainward 4850 GS is still King of the Hill for best price/performance, here and in many countries. Thanks a lot guys!

As for Far Cry 2, remember we will be offering discounts vouchers for all Gainward users club members soon: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/783556/+220

Hey Peeps,

We already said Gainward 4830 will only be available sometime mid/end Nov. We are in no hurry to launch since we want ours to be 'special'.

Also, please do NOT expect price drop now, be thankful that we have not increase the price due to the crazy increase in exchange rate for USD. Hurry up and get your IT stuffs before prices go up again... The general sentiment is USD might go up even more.

We have just finished our 3rd batch of Golden Sample. So we are not sure if we can maintain the prices for the new batch. Hurry up and get them from our dealers in LYN or LYP. For everyone info, our sales for 4850 GS have actually gone up despite 4850 not being new anymore. New is not necessarily good, and our 4850GS is indeed the best choice for price/performance. Most of all, thank you for choosing Gainward.

We will release discounts coupons for games once we moved to our new office in Komplek Penchala, PJ. Enjoy the club guys.

When a big company like Scanart combine with a small company like Netraid, it's a takeover. And Charles will disappear into the sunset like an old western movie... lol...

Role or no role not important lar. What is important is Gainward users become happy and stay happy. And we bring in Gainward models to take pics with Gainward users. Opps, dat is my personal dream lar, terlebih share...



Seriously guys, let us move to PJ next week and settle down. After the first week of Nov, we will plan some goodies for everyone.

Hi Guys,

More reviews for Gainward 4850 GS and 4870 GS. This time from our resident LYN expert, Goldfries:

Brian said it's his favorite card ever!

Thanks Serigala, Celciuz, Desmond1310, Tech3910 and others for helping the new club members who have problems. Of course, if still cannot solve, please contact us (website below) after Nov 3.

We would not be working on Nov 30 & 31 because we are shifting to our new office in PJ. If you need anything, please call Kenneth 016-3358337. Thanks.

Attention to all potential buyers of Gainward,

After holding on for a month, we have no choice but to increase prices due to the high exchange rate for USD. Mostly likely price will increase on the first week of November. Please don't worry, it will be minimal increase. We will reduce price once the USD drop again (hopefully).

Please buy your Gainward cards (or any IT stuffs) asap. We still have dealers with old stocks.

Thank you very much for considering Gainward.

PS. This price increase will also affect all products that Scanart distribute.

http://www.scanart.com.my/v2/product.php

and

http://www.sds.com.my/products.php

Your 4850 GS has silver (nickel plated) or golden (copper) heatpipes? Please run 3DMark06 and see if it hangs?

If golden heatpipes and it hangs, please PM us and tell us who you bought it from? You might be having a first batch card. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

OK Guys,

No need to speculate. No stock because:

1. 4850 GS and 4870 GS all SOLD OUT since 2 weeks ago. Dealers also probably habis.

2. The rest of the stock was recalled back due to our merger with Scanart where Scanart will be the official distributor for Gainward starting 1st November. 2008.

3. All stock should be available by this weekend (hopefully), or early next week.

Good news is there will be more models: 4850-1GB GS, 4870-1GB GS, 4650-1GB, 4670-1GB and the new 4830. There will not be any 4850X2 at the moment. We do hope that the newer GS batch will be further improved (cooler, faster, more OC capability).

Version 2 of this thread will start these few days. Looks like I'll be the mod of the time being (although my new role is SI/OA products like Fuji Xerox, CNet, Asus Networking, Panasonic, Airis GPS etc).

Cheers guys!

Sorry man, forgot to mention. YES, there is also Gainward HD4870X2 but not GS lar. Volume too low to R&D for GS. Unless you all buy more Gainward 4870X2.

Get ready for the sparkling new Gainward stocks and new models by next week.
