You type better than I do and I can even see. What's to identify? You already know it's a 9700, other specs on label, make it the non-Pro version with 128MB memory, and the I/O plugs on it should be fairly obvious.

I've bought a second hand radeon 9700 on ebay. It works fine. primary reason to get it was to make it in to the 9700 pro ... If it works fine, then ????? Works fine, but can overclock due to bios! wanted to download the 9700 pro bios and dont know where to get it. Could not find it on the ati web site. However I would like to know wether its build by ati or 3rd party companies. 3rd party i gather its made by grandmars (?) Ask more questions? Ok... ask us if you should install the drivers from that website or the newer versions on ATI's website. (hint- ATI's website). got the catalists 4.2. just cant oc it! |

Tried Rage3DTweak yet? Not only does it allow you to tweak the Catalyst
settings, but the latest version lets some clock-locked Radeons be overclocked without a bios update... http://www.rage3d.com/index.php?node=r3dtweak&56819 Try it. I like it... edek wrote in message ... I've bought a second hand radeon 9700 on ebay. It works fine. primary reason to get it was to make it in to the 9700 pro ... If it works fine, then ?????
