novatech brand prices

[Jleagle]

What does the novatech brand mean? I see alot of products that novatech have branded as their own?


Also, how are these two different prices when they appear to be the same card? Am i missing something?

Novatech saves web spaces by only having major brands, all other brands are named Novatech. i bought a Geforce 4 Ti4400 (good ol' days) branded Novatech, but it's PVN, which is a very good brand.

read the reviews, you may get hints of which brand they are.

So Sapphire and Asus both make the exact same GPU? Are all of the electronics different, just the same spec?

Also, can anyone find the Novatech warranty on their site? I might think about getting the Novatech version to save £20!

Thanks.

To be honest you may as well just get the cheaper one as there all the same anyway and novatech warranty is rather good with a fast and speedy service which is virtually hassle free.

Yup, the 'novatech' brand will usually be what they can get in cheapest, think of it as bulk buying - it would not be unusual to buy a 'novatech brand' graphics card, and find it was actually made by someone else, like MSI or PVN.
