Hi,
I know it´s always the same [-peep-], but can`t find any reviews on powercolour 9600pro. I read stuff about vga, so know what chip is best for my money : ati 9600 pro,duh , but I´m forced to buy computer from a shop ´cause of personal reasons, and the only 9600 pro they have is from powercolour (don`t know which one yet, get to know soon). I´m a gamer, but not into clocking, don´t care about software or looks, just quality and price. Is the card worth it or should I go for the 5600 ultra ( dunno make either) . Both are around the same price here, 120 euros ( am in spain, so no dollars here), and have 128 mb (dunno what speed). I know the bravo edition is alright, but just want to know about the rest of the powercolour 9600 pro´s, in case I can´t get the bravo
thanks

Can you get any other brand of 9600Pro? Besides powercolour?

My own beast: Athlon 2700xp+ (oc: 3200xp+ with 200fsb) , Radeon 9800pro (oc: 410/370) , 512mb ddr400. SO MUCH faster than my last computer (pIII 550......)

they use crappy memory on their cards so overclocking is limited; if you do that kinda thing

Also they call cards PRO that aren't pro.

Their R9700PRO became their R9700GOLD (after alot of people complained, and likely potential lawsuits), all the while it was really and R9700non-pro

The R9600Pro EZ, uses TSOP memory, NO REAL R9600Pro uses TSOP!

A few of their R9800PRos show up underclocked.

Alot of people in the forums had to return them a found it a pain. Response time from PC poor.

That's my main reasons.

thanx u guys, have read the reviews, know what there is, so I know the 9600 EZ is not a proper 9600 pro, but have no other 9600 pro to choose from. Its either this one or a 5600 ultra, so I know the EZ has got [-peep-] up memory and all, but is it that crap??
thanx
