"Radeon = poor quality!"

I bought the Radeon 9000, about 2 months ago...and last friday, it stopped working....i took a look at it, and found that the fan had stopped working and it had over heated. i was extremeley annoyed. i have never known a fan to stop working even when cloged with dust (which this wasnt, and all the connections where fine)

I have replaced it with the Geforce FX 5200 and i am very pleased with it. And i am just telling, and warning, people that radeon are, in my view, poor quality.

Food and a few lady friends?

I really dont know who you are anymore Grix Thraves, i really dont.
You come out with all these offencive words, and phrases, that just upset those around you.

What's got in to you?

I do despair. That's the disclaimer for the website. Care to read the page I linked to? Or the one following on from that with the terms of the warranty? http://ati.com/support/rma/warranty.html - If that's too long, here's a quote from the start -

"ATI Technologies Inc. warrants to the original purchaser of the hardware that the product is in good working condition, according to its specifications at the time of shipment, for a period of one to five years from the date of original purchase. The warranty term depends on the product. RADEON 7000 and newer products have a three year warranty. DV Wonder cards have a two year warranty. The Remote Wonder has a one year warranty. All other ATI products have a five year warranty.

Alrighty? I blame Goatboy's semi-departure, there's not nearly enough rants to vent frustration around here.

*Struts*

Phil is now pitying himself and beating his face with Rob's ass.

No, becaus eI can see that right at the top of the front page of ATI.com/uk is a link which says "Customer Care", and if you hover a mouse over it, a menu pops up saying "Warranty Service". So, thinking about it, one click.

hahah, super man... hah

Any way, the fan says ATI, and that broke and robin has quoted that they will not take responsibility and by buying their products i have agreed to this. so i can blame them, but i still cant do any thing

Because you are some kind of super man?

That took me 8 seconds and 2 clicks, would've been faster if I hadn't paused to look at an add too. Is it ATI branded? If it is, by all means blame them, but accept that out of thousands and thousands produced, some will be faulty. If it's not ATI branded (and is actually, say, Sapphire, Connect3d, Powercolor etc) then don't blame "Radeon" for it, blame the individual companies, often they'll have made cooling revisions to ATIs original design (though perhaps not on the 9000) and they're the peopel to talk to if there's a fault.
