HELP ME figure out who made my card please...

[cleeve]

Does anyone have this card? I bought it on e-bay and I'd like to know who the manufacturer is:

I have a Radeon 9500 with "L" shaped memory on the red pcb. Ram is Infineon 3.6. The GPU fan is stock Ati with an Ati sticker.

The card came in a white box with:
- A manual
- a radeon driver disk
- PowerDVD
- 4x4 Evo 2 (game)
- svideo cable, DVI-to_VGA dongle

This is a picture I found on the web, but it looks just like mine (as far as I remember; I don't have the card in front of me)

I'm guessing this thing is a Sapphire. Does anyone have this particular card? Which brand is yours?

Thanks!

That is the Sapphire. You can go to newegg and look at the product images to confirm.

Sapphire or Powercolor. I know Powercolor had a Radeon 128MB 9500NP on newegg for awhile with L-shaped memory. And it looks like almost all the Powercolor r300 series are shipping with DVD software and 4x4 Evo 2. So it's one of those .

Cleeve, what does this mean:

From your 3dmark score I'm pretty sure that you don't have the 9500-9700 mod applied... Why are you mentioning it?

 

[Nights_L]

doesn't it tell you in the ATI control panel?
mine does..so..

 

[cleeve]

I mention it because, mod or not, the 256 bit memory bus does add a noticable bit of performance.

[Nights_L]

Does that mean his Radeon9500 is actually running like a 9700?

 

[phial]

not unless you enable the full 8 pipelines
