Palit hd 4850 with no crossfire connector ! plzz help!!!

[Power_user_EX]

Hi guys , just bought plait hd4850.
First thing struck me that the heat sink was the 'round one' - which i've never seen in any reviews on net. Second thing it had one DVI to VGA done adapter with pci-e power, BUT
it had no CROSS FIRE CONNECTOR!!!
hows this possible ?

I asked the dealer - he told it doesn't come with it!!!

Help guys - what to do ?

This was the card i expected but found it with different heat sink - golden color.
Any one having this card coz i'm having a different one->

its alright ...the one u are getting is the only one available right now ...

*techshop.in/store/product_info.php?cPath=4_272&products_id=2437

that was the first reference model ....

moreover crossfire bridge connector hardly ever comes with a graphics card mostly it comes with mobo ...so don't worry about anything its alright ....by the how much did u get it for ...?

Dont worry, its a genuine product as imgame2 said. You can easily get a cross-fire connector from the market for dirt cheap prices. Even my 8800GT didnt come with a SLi Bridge (its called bridge in NVIDIA models ).

[hellgate]

r the Palit cards good?

 

[imgame2]

ask the people who have bought it ...i don't think there is any problem with them ...now they are going cheaper day by day ...

 

[Power_user_EX]

Thx , all u guys for the quick responses.

sorry @mukherjee i have ordered the sapphire card and returned the palit one .

Sapphire gives good accessories and also the cross fire connector which is most important for me!!! coz ill be going xfire in future.

^^Kool.

@hellgate

Palit cards perform well and good.

Palit 9600GSO, Palit 8600GT Sonic+, Palit 9600GT and Palit HD4850 are some great variants from Palit. Palit manufactures good mobos too. Palit N73 based on the NVIDIA 630i is a very good VFM mobo.
