294877 2004-11-22 05:23:00 Hi,
I've decided to purchase a Radeon 9800 pro, and just want to confirm one thing before I go ahead.
Is it correct that a 9800pro with 256bit, 128mb.....is better than, a 9800pro with 128bit, 256mb?
Many thanks for your answers!
May Ala bless you! :d

294878 2004-11-22 05:28:00 yeap apparently the 128mb are better than the 256 Prescott (11)
294879 2004-11-22 05:35:00 a 128 bit 9800pro is not a 9800pro,Even if marketed as such,and should be avoided at all cost. metla (154)
294880 2004-11-22 05:51:00 I'm trying to sell my Ati original, 9800 pro with 128MB memory (256bit). Ati originals are a lot better than Gecube ones. If you are interested you can email me at the address in my profile. PoWa (203)

Ati originals are considered a better

294883 2004-11-22 06:23:00 > Sorry . . . was there a word missing from that?


Depends who you ask .

Some people argue that ATI original must be better . After all the company that designed the card produced the card .

The there are those who argue that since ATI give everyone the same reference card to copy and locks down what other companys are allowed to tweak that it makes no difference .

Hence PoWa says "are"

metla says "considered"

294886 2004-11-22 06:27:00 Yep,words missing,thought i had canceled the post,but instead managed to post half of it...

What i was going to say is that the ATI originals are considered by many to be the best that reached the market,In reality there were many cards that matched them pound for pound.

Powa's mention of Gecubs cards is correct, If i was given a choice between the 2 i would take the ATI original.
