Radeon 9800 Pro vs AIW 9800

It seems for $364 I can get the 9800 Pro but for $15 I can get the 9800 AIW, which gives me a TV tuner and capture card. That doesn't seem right. Is the 9800 in the AIW a lesser 9800 than the one in the Pro? I'm sorry, you've lost me. For $15? Did you leave a word or digit out? -- -- --John Reply to jclarke at ae tee tee global dot net (was jclarke at eye bee em dot net) |

The non pro version of the card still beats the 9700 pro and has updated DX 9 architecture. Go for it. Did you check the link he provided? There is no All-in-wonder other than the pro listed on that site.

explain the price difference. I would go for it anyway. The non pro version of the card still beats the 9700 pro and has updated DX 9 architecture. Go for it.

Sorry, try this http://tinyurl.com/qn0s this only shows the 9800 PRO summary: AIW 9800 BULK $361 9800 RETAIL $364 AIW 9800 RETAIL $379 ALL of these have the PRO designation. Interestingly, the retail version is non refundable. If the difference between retail and bulk is a nice box and additional software, I'd go with the bulk for the refund possibility. If the AIW is really same card as the 9800, seems like a no brainer to get the AIW. Gotcha--$15 difference you meant. Whether you go with the AIW or the regular really depends on whether you'd rather have dual-monitor support or TV-in and a tuner. -- -- --John Reply to jclarke at ae tee tee global dot net (was jclarke at eye bee em dot net) |
