Feeling Owned

[A_SN]

Hi, I just received my GP2X. I ordered it throught gp2x.co.uk, and as I ordered it in late may, it was said through the whole ordering process that it would be a MK2, and also a white one (not that I really care about the color tho).

But what I received was a F100, a black one. I feel pwned, but I feel that it's not right since in the end I didn't get the product I ordered. What should I do?

Errm, the MK2 is black and has F100 as model nr.

The name MK2 derived from the boards, not from GPH, so I'm almost sure you got a MK2 (as the old gp2x are not available anymore)

Who told you you'd get a white one?

There are no white ones.

How do you know it isn't a MkII?

 

[marco0551]

Maybe because gbax has a picture of a white unit

 

[scraggy]

On the back if it says on the bottom line of the sticker F100-B it'a a MK 2
And yes apparently there are no white ones, but if thier isn't I think they should remove the picture of it personally because it is appears to be misleading quite a few people.

 

[nickspoon]

If the sticker on the back is in Korean, it's a MK2.

I actually prefer the MK1 screen myself.

Everyone just needs to remove the picture of the white prototype GP2X. It just confuses people.

MK1 FTW!

Ya, they really gatta get rid of those pics. I asked gp2x.co.uk about the colours and they said the white ones were pics of the prototypes.

oh ok, I assumed it was a F100 _as opposed_ to a MK2

See, now you should be feeling owned.









Just kidding. Welcome aboard.

what! they are black!?! I thought everyone had white ones!

I have a MK1 because I don't care, my screen has no problems and I don't mind the joystick at all, but mine can only OC to 280

 

[sand_man]

only 280? consider yourself lucky.
mine wont go far over 266 and I'm lucky compared to others.

I'd have to say, though I haven't tried MK2 for myself yet, that I'm actually glad I ordered mine a few weeks before the MK2 was announced/replaced the MK1. While the scanlines can be somewhat annoying, I'd say being able to overclock to ~300 MHz makes up for it.

So far it doesn't seem to matter much regarding overclocking. I've heard of Mk1ers getting 240 and Mk2ers getting 275+.

Be interesting to see a full-scale comparison though.

 

[Vimacs]

theres no change in that, there are many mk1's who reach 275 or even over 300mhz

 

[geise69]

I can reach over 300mhz with certain programs and I have an MK1. I actually thought the MK2's couldn't clock as high?

 

[Vimacs]

there is no difference...

 

[dsraa]

there is no difference...

Now that sounds like a great sig line......dum de dum......ok, stolen.
