ATI 9800 pro, Powercolor 9800 Pro

[Guest]

My friend bought a Powercolor 9800 Pro card and he claims that the gpu and
memory run exactly the same as the ATI 9800 Pro. I have read posts in the
past and seem to recall that the Powercolors run a bit slower.

Who is right - Him or Me ?

I'll get a case of beer if I'm right !!

Thanks
Ron

How about comparing memory and gpu speeds...

They can be found on the ATI website....

From the Powercolor website: 380 core, 340 memory for both 128 and 256Mb
cards

From the ATI website: 380 core, 340 memory for both 128 and 256Mb cards
