I was happy with my Sapphire 9100
I know at one time, Sapphire would manufacture cards for ATI.

I have had a 9600XT and I currently have a 9800PRO, both have been rock
solid. If I build a system for anyone I invariably use a Sapphire, no probs
so far.....

Currently have the Sapphire 9800Pro. Prior to that has the Sapphire
9600Pro. I'd buy Sapphire again. Shaun

I was a little worried when I ordered my Sapphire X800 Pro as I'd have preferred
to buy from Gigabyte, a company I have had good experience with in the past.

But, my qualms were unnecessary. The card is good, the heatsink for example has
good contact with the GPU, and the card performs very well.

The overclockability, usually a sign of good manufacturing, surprises me.
Currently, I'm overclocking the card to 540/540 and it still works well even in
games which challenge the video card. There are no visible artefacts, no
crashes, and the temperature remains moderate (in the low 50's).

I'd buy Sapphire again.
