Now Lazada selling Palit GTX950 @ $219 before discount. Extremely worth it.

For Palit GeForce GTX 960 JetStream buy 2GB or 4GB? price is 3 dollar difference.

Or ZOTAC GeForce GTX 960 Dual Fan 2GB GDDR5 OC will be better

well 2gb and 4gb have no game difference u can go google it, i saw it b4 but 4gb seems abit under perform, den again, in normal gaming both can see much difference.

Both brands are good imo, zotac provide 5 years warranty (3+2) dunno local or zotac is longer. plait 3 years.

 

[ragnarok95]

Take note that Zotac 5yrs warranty is 2+3. 2yrs local support + 3yrs Zotac support. After 2yrs, Zotac will take over for the remaining 3yrs.

Buyer NEED TO REGISTER IN ZOTAC website within 14 days from purchase in order to get the 3yrs Zotac support. If you NEVER register, you will only get 2yrs local support.

 

[xiaosen]

Ok noted thanks for all the helps! most likely I go with ZOTAC.

I think after the 2nd yr Tech dynamic will help you settle? Because if you go to the website and register, it still bring you to Zotac warranty site. lol
