So far I have been sticking with ATI and Hercules Radeon 9800pros, has anyone else had similiar success with other OEMS of the 9800 pro?

Sapphire, FIC, and Gigabyte all overclocks pretty good. HIS released 1 with Ice-Q cooling and it's really good, and Geil released new 1 using Thermaltake's Giant2 heatpipe cooler with 2.2ns Hynix memory, and the card's default frequency is at 450mhz/740mhz so it's a 70mhz increase in core by default from ATI's refrence card.

When it comes out it should be cheaper than the XT. But the XT has some little tweaks that make better use of the 412mhz core speed. Thats why it gets over 6500 in 3dmark 03 and the geil will struggle to match that on pure clock speed alone.

No idea when its released though...
