I wish to know which ram, hopefully samsung, does the Radeon 9800 pro built by ATI has? Not those OEM radeons but the retail from ATI. Thanks.....

DDR2 Memory that is the better RAM then the DDR1 stuff. Nvidia is currently using DDR1 in the new FX line of graphics cards and they design the cards to run faster MHz then ATI currently gets.
The DDR2 Memory gets hotter faster then DDR1 that is the engineering problem faced by both, but ATI seems to have got it right.
I would prefer the DDR2 memory if I could have it on my Geforece Ti4200 card but that is not how the card was designed to work.

Hi,
All BBA Radeon 9800 Pro's 128mb come with 2.86ns Samsung memory chips.

2.8C @ 3.5 w/ slk-800u and smart fan 2, Abit IC7-G, 2 x 256mb Geil Platinum pc4000, Radeon 9700 Pro 375/335, 2 x WD Raptor in Raid 0
 
The R9800Pro uses Samsung 2.86ns memory. Here's a picture of it from <A HREF="http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=NDM5" target="_new">[H]'s R9800P review</A> when it first came out;

Way to go DumbA$$, you managed to ramble on and on incoherently without ever answering his question with any part of that mess above.

Your babblings about DDR vs GDDR2 show an incredible lack of focus. And the type of memory has little to do with how a card/memory is 'designed to work', that comes AFTER chosing the memory modules.

Skilz? Yeah right!

OIE!
