Agiliity Three Questions

[GroggyTech]

1) Are these end of line, over clockers don't stock them any more. Are they coming back to OC because i saw them for £50 at one point

2) Ive seen else where "refurbished" versions; are these any good or should i avoid them since i don't want any hassle with failures and having to return items.

3) An unrelated question; why are the vertex 4 and agility 4 slower than the 3 versions and selling for more and why have OCZ left the sandforce controller and opted for having 1GB cache; are these new drives actully better some how?

Thanks

Stay away had 3 rma's and very bad customer service had to get > The Register, involved to get a refund.

OK ill avoid the "refurbished" models

What about OC stocking agility 3 again?

Also why are the new vertex and agility 4 slower reads/writes when they are newer?

Thanks

The newer models ought to be more reliable.

Saying that, I've had two Agility 3s running for around a year or so and had no issues. Plenty of horror stories though...
