DriverHeaven today looks at a Radeon 9500 Pro card from Sapphire Technology. I have to admit that this card is a real winner for what it can do at its current price. Cheaper then GeForce4 Ti4600 or Ti4800SE, it comes close performace wise to these cards and should not be ignored just because it's not made by Nvidia. Anyway, here's a short quote from the review:

"The 9500 Pro was originally dubbed a killer for a rival product namely the 'Ti4200' but in nearly all tests carried out by myself and by other reviewers and of course the public, this card can be seen giving the 'Ti4600' a run for its money. In terms of increasing the performance of your PC adding this card to your system can be assured to be the right move, I was astounded by how much better games played on my system, just by adding the card, When asking 'What should I upgrade?' I would be inclined to say more RAM or more processing power, but after witnessing the transformation to the system from this card, I now have to say I would recommend looking to the graphics if you want that burst of energy in your system."
