Today MSI has come up with a Press Release which offers "immediate and free replacement or a refund" of the defective cards.
According to MSI, 350 defective cards were sold. Those cards do have NVIDIA's NV45 chip, MSI says the real cause of the "still unknown chip problem" remains to be found.
Full Press Release (only available in german):
Frankfurt at the Main Taipei, 3 February 2005 - the MSI Technology Germany takes position to the current messages over performance problems with some selected diagram maps of the 6800er-Reihe. It is admits become that with some adapters of the type NX6800GT-TD256E, which was delivered so far only in small numbers of items (approx. 350 pieces) to the trade, it to performance losses to come can. MSI announces hereby the immediate and free exchange or when desired the customer also the cancelling of products concerned. After detailed, internal examination it could be confirmed that on the maps already delivered, differently than already partly reports, which correct chip was blocked. Performance losses nevertheless are in the two digit range admit become due to a still unknown chip problem (approx. 10%). According to specification thereby Nvidias NV45-GPU is blocked on the NX6800GT-TD256E-Modellen. This chip is identically constructed, however only extended by a PCI express Broken chip in the core with the NV40-Grafikprozessor. Sometimes therefore the NV45 can give itself to recognize with the selection of the chip ID with an appropriate program as "NV40". It does not concern a case a NV41 - this is substantially smaller on the one hand and on the other hand acts it with this (NV41) around a pure PCI express chip, with which no Bridgechip is necessary (see illustration).
Customers over mentioned performance problems complain, can exchange or against refunding the full purchase price return your map free of charge after collecting main of the original purchase voucher with the dealer the map. The distribution of the appropriate load, defies ambiguity in like far all maps by the problem affected are, stopped. Appropriate spare products are expected in the coming days and brought on fastest ways into the trade. MSI is to be anxious constantly strengthened since 2001 the world-wide largest supplier of diagram subsystems and strongly around it the confidence of its customers into the high quality of the own products by constant improvement continuously. In the interest of our customers MSI keeps itself before the image of our enterprise and our products against unfair and wrong messages and obstructions on the course of law to proceed.
內文指出，對於流出大約350片的瑕疵品，微星將由客戶決定，將瑕疵品拿回交換良品或全數退費。
出問題的原因，微星並未推責任，直指是因不明原因，有nv40的繪圖處理器，少數被誤為nv50的繪圖處理器，而產生這一問題。
大廠就是大廠，他承認、他道歉、他負責。
這樣，我們有必要為外國人起舞嗎?他們的消費者意識比我們強一萬倍了。
古時候，我用過他的主機板，電容爆漿，我再也不用他的產品，但，這一次，我對微星的看法完全改觀。以後，他有好產品，我一定用。
