I'm looking at buying a Radeon 9800Pro. The Saphire brand is about $50 cheaper than the ATI. Has anyone had any experience with either? Which one is better? Is it worth it to spend the extra $50 if the ATI is better, or save it and buy Battlefield 2?
Sapphire manufactures ATi's cards. That pretty much means they're the same.
So Saphire actually builds the cards that are sold under ATi' name? I s that what you mean?Quote:

:t
Seems like a no brainer then, I should get the cheaper Saphire. Thanks for your help.
Another question for every one. I was able to find a Geforce 6600GT for about the same price as the Radeon 9800. Which card is better and which will last me longer?
I want to play HL2, Doom3, BF2, etc on fairly high settings. I've got an AMD64 3200, 1Gig RAM.
Which company produces a better, less buggy driver?
The 6600gt is alot faster then a 9800pro even though they look about the same in ram size and so on the 6600gt is a newer core and has ddr3 ram. I had a 9800pro that I upgraded to a 6600gt and it is allmost twice as fast in benchmarks.
