Hello,
I was looking at buying a new ati radeon 9600 pro
There are 3 brands that have card around the same price.
which is the best out of
saphire , HIS EXCALIBUR , GeXcube (gigacube)
also i was thinking of getting vivo and noticed that 256mb card were a bit cheaper and was woundering if this card with 256mb of memory would be able to use it effectivly.
Or isnt it worth getting a card with 256mb but missing out on vivo

by Gexcube as it is the fastest one in the ones there. its a new company but its products are excellent. i made the mistake of getting the sapphire which shouold hadve been the best but its actually the slowest. dont get 256 as a card like this can not use all of it. its a marketing ploy to get people like you to buy it thinking its really good. vivo is only good if youre going to use it.
