9600PRO, clearing this up.

[A.A]

Okay, the subject and thing to discuss is obvious to you at this point.

So, I've seen some very different prizes on the 9600PRO, and I wonder on thing...it's been said to me that the reason why some 9600PRO are so cheap are because the are underclocked. Would I be able to overklock such a card to real clockspeeds and above anyway or have they tinkered with them and made that impossible?
And what do I gain on buy one of the more costly modells of the 9600PRO?

Odds are that if you are able to clock it up to 9600pro standard speeds, it would be very hot and unstable, taking years off it's life. And the underclocked 9600pro (the powercolor ez version) has memory clocked 100MHz (200Mhz DDR) slower, and I seriously doubt it.

The more costly modle get you a better performing, better quality card that will last much longer.

What about this one?

Worth my money? It costs about..hmm..130-140 $ I think.
And what does VE stand for? Vomit Edition?



BTW, if you'r not a swede, the word "ja" means "yes".

The brand name is "Club"? Wow. I would go with a more prominent brand name. Sapphire comes to mind.

 

[Aknot]

Although they do like "OK" cards. Email them and get memory specs and the such. Find out what they use.

 

[SidewinderX]

I'd look for either Sapphire or Gigabyte personally.

Club3D (not Club) is a prominent brandname.

I will aim for that one, more costly but yet cheap, and it's Sapphire.


And thanks!

THat is one of the best 9600pro on the market. I fully reccomend it.

I'll aim to get that one
I've read much good things about it and heard it's an extreme overclocker.

Otherwise known as sekiner
And also riksdaler, close part of the good old original dollar word.
Crowns, pff... That's an insult, even coming from a swede

Anyway, the 9600 is one HELL OF A overclocker. It can be pushed to the extreme if cooled well.

How come you know this? Are you a swede you little bagger?
Crowns yes..kronor, crowns...that would be the correct translation.


I think I'll save my..crowns () and wait for the 9600XT.
