    they probably will give you the fx5600. the ti4200 was the "value" of the ti4600 just as the fx5600 is the "value" of the fx5900

    his old card is dying, and he's getting an RMA.

    they'll replace it with a similar card, so he can't really choose to make the switch.

    I couldn't tell you, but settle for no less than the 5600.

    [sarcasm]Dumb people... read the first post [/sarcasm] I have to wait for the tech support email... I just sent them one so they should email me back in a day or so. I told em I don't want anything under a 5600 ultra. So, we will see... it would be cool if they gave me their new "cool FX" card with the stock water cooling.
