Massdrop offered me a refund but I refused because I didn't want to wait any longer.

Honestly dissapointed AF. Even on the packing slip that came in the box it says RX480 Nitro+. Thats what we want Massdrop. IDC about a refund, I waited 1 entire fucking month after buying it and I got the wrong card.

Left Is a Asus Strix OC RX 480 8GB Right is this Nitro card. Time Spy: http://www.3dmark.com/compare/spy/1290147/spy/1314639 Firestrike: http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/11846654/fs/11888308 ( Don't look at score, the big number can sometimes mislead you, I took all the +% and averaged them to get the below %)
Hope that helps guys, I know the results are a bit skewed with the Strix on the 1350Hz OC but look, only an average of 7.8% difference in the Firestrike and 7.07% in Time Spy test. 1350Mhz Versus 1306Mhz So its not all doom and gloom if we really compare this Drop to a stock Sapphire Nitro+ I'm sure there would only be 3-4% difference or less!, can you guys live with that? For me as a Canadian this was a great deal on a RX 480 8GB so I'm kind of happy.

HyeVltg3That's all well an good, but the fact is the product was not as advertised and is available at a cheaper price at other retailers without the one month wait etc.

Wow... it seems like we paid $30+ more than we should. The reps from the company even came on here to tell us not to worry it was a previously unreleased NITRO+ ... all very shady. This was my first drop and it has not been a very good experience. To top it off many of us live abroad and shipping it back is prohibitively expensive. I bought this because it was supposed to have RGB man!

ingalookThere's gotta be a reason it was unreleased, right?

This will be extremely disappointing if massdrop does not offer us refunds.

Ok, so we now know it's the Nitro instead of the Nitro+, but my question is, has anyone actually booted it up and ran benchmarks to see if it actually performs any differently to the Nitro+ card? I live in Australia so I paid about 317aud, whereas a nitro+ retails for about 370aud. Can anyone tell me if the nitro really is worth $50 less than the nitro+?

Leviathan431Yes, it does perform slightly differently. It probably isn't worth another $50 more for the Nitro+.

This is the email I received about the error in the product, sadly they didn't notice that the pictures were incorrect either, which lead many of us to think this was the Nitro+ edition. I hope they follow up and give us some sort of compensation or refund.
