I just saw the Asus radeon 9800pro at my local retailer, and they have it for 370Cad, i thought it's a pretty good deal, I just can't figure out if it uses DDR1 or DDR2 memory, it's <A HREF="http://usa.asus.com/products/vga/r9800pro/overview.htm" target="_new">this</A> card. Anybody have one of these? know the overclockability on them?

I have the Gigacube (GeCube) 9800 pro extreme, it's a bit quicker than the std pro with an extra 10 Mhz on teh GPU and ram. As far as I know, they use DDR 2 ram (samsung, maybe somebody knows for sure) anyay it's a very quick card and only about 8 to 10% slower than the 9800XT.

Personally not a big fan of gigapuke, and i just want to find out if Asus used DDR2 or DDR 1 memory on their card, if they used DDR1 then i like to know whether they used 2.86ns or 2.5ns

I know DDR2 isn't faster, it's slower at same speeds, but i'm an extreme overclocker. So I want to be able to push my cards to its limit. I just don't want to spend 370 dollars on a card with 2.86ns memory.
