VR-Zone has tested the new Radeon 9800 Pro card from CP Technology or more commonly known as PowerColor. Here's a snip:
PowerColor as a close partner of ATi has been following ATi reference design very closely all along and no doubt this time, their Radeon 9800 Pro card looks exactly like the ATi reference card. However, their key difference lies in the speed of the memories as the PowerColor Radeon 9800 Pro is using some special 2ns DDR-I memory chips from Hynix that has has an effective memory clock speed of 500Mhz while the ATI reference and its competitors are using 2.8ns DDR-I memory.

Who skips from page one to page ten on most of the new reviews after I know all the cards features/abilities pretty well? I mean, besides OCing what is the real diff between the various manufacturers is pretty minimal. |
