I installed the latest drivers to a new setup and I was wondering anyone using XP and what does it say about thier video cards? Especially the new ATI cards 3dmark2003 says that the video card (as is in mine) is a 9600 series? While my 9500Pro actually says 9500pro, just wondering because the 3dmark2003 score just didn't look good but it was it's first run.

I downloaded the latest drivers just lastnight from ATI, so I was wondering, anyone else have a 9600pro feel like sharing?

My 9500Pro says it's a 9700Pro in the advance settings. I have flashed the bios to get a 360/300 core/memory overclock though.

well thanks for the info glad to hear I'm not the only one, I was getting worried that it was just a 9600.

Remeber you can check clock speeds too. A 9600 is 325/400 and a pro is 400/600.

Well I used the latest power strip and saw that the setting on the card but it's default are 400\300 that is rounded. I know I'm new at this but when it says engin and memory being 400\600 on the site but other tools tell me differently I'm wondering if I just don't understand or ATI lied? It's running at half the memory speed.

if you check the numbers on ur memory then search the samsung website it should tell you what the max speed for you memory is

i couldnt run stable but my core was also raised.
