9700 difference

[cyberdad]

What is the difference between an ATI Radeon 9700, a Power Color Radeon 9700 and a All in Wonder 9700?

ATI, warrented by ATI, probably built by sapphire
PowerColour, have heard bad things, have heard good things, but i would go with ATI
ALL in WOnder (AIW), is not just a video card but a suite of multimedia features like video capture/tvtuner. etc

my advice, get a 9700 from ati and then buy a cheap tvtuner card if you want the multimedia features of a AIW. should save money

Like what Schadenfroh said : |=

If you need a video card just for games, don't bother getting a AIW. No performance increase other than media accessibility.

to be on the safe side, stay away from powercolor as they have a spotty reputation when it comes to reliability

Go with ATI, issues with Power Color

What about sapphire?

Issues with OLDER cards or CURRENT cards? I've heard nothing but good things about the new ones, and I'm using one myself.
....unless you mean "has problems OCing like mad".
