ATI should stick to their 9700 till they find a better solution... they already have NVidia cornered... quit while your ahead for now ATI! Hold that card back till you can find a better cooling solution! :eek:

That is a joke, that looks so photoshoped on, rather poorly as well. It's the EXACT same cooler as the G FX only with a sticker on the fan saying saphire and the ATI logo isn't at the degree it should be if it was painted or applied to the cooler. It's a joke.

Also look at the card layout, it wouldnt' work with the way the cooler sits as it is now. The copper base isn't even PARELLEL to the chipset itself if you look through the cooler - the other side was just chopped off before being "pasted" on. The holes don't even match up correctly unless they now drill their boards crooked.

Also notice how the board looking at the capacitators your looking down at it from nearly a 90 angle, look at the cooler, particulary the mounting holes (those cylinders in the green plastic), the angle is closer to 75 degrees.

Like I said, badly executed.

The only good thing to come of the new Geforce FX is that other card prices will go down.:)

FAKE!!!

Check out where ATI is painted on you'll see green graphic card board below the cooling tunnel. Otherwise it would show orange/red color board behind the cooling tunnel.

Who ever did that picture need to take a course called "Photoshop for dummies".

I think Gainward cards are usually that color. Mine is anyways. That's the first thing I thought, then saw ATI...then I smelled fish.

Gainwood might be that color like u claimed. But But partial of the board is green and the rest is red.

It's so obivous somebody cropped the fan from geforce fx picture and implant it on an radeon 9500/9700 board.


I still think it's amazing that Radeon 9xxx doesent even need that extreme cooling yet preforms very closely to fx (or better). Haven't personally tested that board. :p


Whoever did that picute.... YOU SUCK!!! And your just jealous of ATI. :p

plus the card is only 1 slot wide, so if it was the same cooling soultion, it would make the tab wide
