    Issues with 4770 replacement.

    RMA 214511

    4770 was sent back for repair around 5 weeks ago.

    Last week on Thursday I called to check the status of the order. Due to a mistake it had not been sent to gigabyte. Mark told me that he would check into replacements and email me suggestions since I had been kept waiting.

    Friday (between 4pm and 5pm) I had not recieved an email so called up and spoke to another person. He said Mark was no longer in, a note would be left on his desk and to call before 2pm on Saturday if I had not recieved the email.

    On saturday after 1pm I called and spoke to Amanda, she was the only the person in. Mark was never going to be in on Saturday. By this point I was rather annoyed since I had to chase it up. However Amanda was very nice and prommised to get back to me on Monday after talking to a manager to look at getting it sorted, even mentioning maybe a slightly faster card due to the trouble I have been through.

    Today I called after 4pm since I had not recieved an email (I have not had ANY emails) and was offered a HD 5670. Reviews have shown the card to be slower than the HD 4770, while its nice having DX11, its not actually fast enough to run DX11 mode (only gets 10-20 fps).

    The GT240 was offered and Mark admitted that he did not know the numbers, but looking its not acceptable since its a decent amount slower.

    I know the HD 4770 was pretty unique in performance per £ (I was curious as to what I was going to get offered).

    Hi,

    Please accept our apologies for the delay with your return.

    Please check your personal e-mail as I have sent you a reply offering an alternative card similar to the card suggested by you in your e-mail to me today.

    Providing you are happy to accept the suggested card I will have it tested and dispatched for you a.s.a.p.

    Regards

    Finally a fair compromise has been reached.
