Say them that you will bring lawyer. Selling product with fake specifications is illegal.

Get a return from wherever you bough it.

It isn't fake specifications... there is 4GB on the 970. It's not exactly the nicest way to get around it, but they didn't do anything illegal.

It took me a while to read that.

I am not talking about ram. ROP count and L2 cache size is different so yes its fake.

3.5gb for me its defect tho because i i will not piss off if its good price like in states 360$ i buy it 500$ equivalent in USD which is 22500php. thats it

I have yet to see an original spec sheet for this GPU that was released before RAMGate that had L2 cache listed. Maybe that's just me, but if someone can

show me where the L2 cache was listed on these, I might buy in. *shrug*

Why are you returning it? If it's about the VRAM thing then that's not a defect.

i dont know how to say it lets just say then it was performance issue its just im piss off. because my 500$ not worth with 970 when i buy it and nvidia didnt even release driver for these nvidia dont really care... thats only my point here.

You could try sending the complaint directly to the card manufacturer.(Asus in this case)

So... you do realize you're gonna lose money if you send it back right?

You won't be refunded VAT.

Well you're not going to get a refund for it though because it's not a defect. 

 

If some company made a USB stick with 8GB but only 7GB was fast and the other 1GB was slow, it's still 8GB. Not a defect, but a scam nonetheless.

Fair enough. But really? Get a lawyer? He would lose. Companies like NV have legal teams beyond what you can imagine... you'd spend so much to do it it would be worth nothing.

In fact, I'm sure NV is already getting lawyers ready for some class-action suit just in case. While a crappy result, it's not that serious, guys.

Well if company is going to return it only for defect then a performance issue does not count as a defect. The card isn't broken.
