9600 XT or 9600 Pro
Which is the faster card out of the 9600 Pro and the 9600 XT? Just wondering
as I noticed the prices for ATI cards seem to be lower at the moment in the UK so I may go and pick one up. -- Byron Hinson ActiveMac: http://www.activewin.com/mac Designer Dream: http://www.designerdream.co.uk |

XT is faster, though PRO self is already damn fast, One problem with the Pro. Compagnies, that is a problem, some make PRO cards with slower memory and sell it as pro cards. It's legal, allowed but not nice. So instead of a nice card with DDR 300 you get DDR 200. Ah, buy a card BUILT BY ATI, or SAPPHIRE and you are safe! |

The Pro and XT seem to be the exact same card, except
The XT GPU runs at 500mhz The Pro GPU runs at 400mhz. Double check on the manufactures website. "Byron Hinson" wrote in message ... Which is the faster card out of the 9600 Pro and the 9600 XT?

The XT uses a new processor made using a different manufacturing process from the Pro, which allows higher clock speeds. It also has on-chip temperature monitoring to support ATI's "overdrive" automatic overclocking. "Byron Hinson" wrote in message ... Which is the faster card out of the 9600 Pro and the 9600 XT?

The XT is the faster version and costs a little more.
