EVGA is known as dog drool.

Hey guys. I got this from another forum. It appears that on the XFX 8600GT boxes, if you look closely, you can see the words EVGA on the dog drool. WTF is wrong with XFX. Now I've lost respect for them, even though I never owned a card from them.

Looks like a photoshop job to me...any of the legit reviewers actual have the box and can confirm it?

Apop reviewed the XFX 8600GT and XFX 8600GTS. I think he might have it.

Yeah, I forgot about that...there's a pic of the box in the review but the res isn't high enough to check

Apop, could you take a higher res pic when you get back from Tunis to satisfy our curiousity?

any particular reason why, mr/mrs/ms XFX Support?

XFX Support · Post by **XFX Support** » Tue Apr 24, 2007 3:46 pm

The exact reason escapes me, however I would guess to poke fun at EVGA in a friendly manner, competitors perhaps but we like to joke around with each other.

Yeah if he could get me a matching 8800GTS free, I'd believe him if he told me the earth is flat

Well, now how can I be too sure about anyone?...*paranoia sets in*

Oh wait, hes got his own official moniker on the forum

J/k nice to see some big company's around...guess this is the upside to the site getting bigger (of course, the downside is all the spammers as of late)

*crawls into corner and waits for delusions to pass*

OK, I'm better! Welcome!

Legitreviews has a history of companies sending employees to our forums. Its a good thing really.
