Chaintech A-GT61 GF4 Ti4600 128M Review (6)
Overclocker 18 Apr 2002

Conclusion

The performance of this card is excellent just like any GF4 Ti4600 cards out there. As we have seen, the peak is reached and unless we super cool it and blowing cool air onto it. It will not help us to push the card to higher mem/ram clocks. The maximum we attained in our tests is 155/728 which is rock stable. The tool provided Turbogfx makes it easy to tune it up but it doesn't seem to allow 1Mhz stepping as it jumps to the nearest clock. e.g. I wanted to adjust to 365(730) it only allows me the option of 364 (728) or 368 (736). This is probably a software bug which can be resolved.

Installation is straightforward and you do not really need to rely on the documentation provided which is available in various languages on the same booklet. The heatsink does not block the AGP retention clip (some cards do have this problem). The package only comes with 2 games and WinDVD; this probably helps to reduce the overall cost of this product. I really love the packaging it just looks marvellous. Kudos to the designers of the package and card. I think the efforts are definitely not wasted. Perhaps in the future, more tools can be provided e.g. 3D glasses etc

Priced at USD 380.00, it's one of the cheaper GF4 Ti4600 cards in the market right now.
