9800 Pro or Non Pro?

[FacelessNobody]

How can I tell if the Sapphire card I just got is a 9800 Pro or non-pro? It has Infineon RAM and says 9800 Pro in Windows's display settings, but I payed for a 9800 np. Thanks.

what are the default clock speed settings? If it's 325 for the core and 580 (290 actual) for the ram, it's a non pro. Can't remember what the pro default settings are at the moment... Also, what was the speed on the ram? I think 3.3 nanoseconds is the usual ram on the non pro. If i'm incorrect on of this someone please correct me!

That's the non-pro and the worst of the non-pro's. Well, the worst memory for the non-pro anyway. I would not worry to much since in most resolutions used between the np and pro there is only a 5 FPS difference. You get above the 1200 x + rez and then you can tell where the extra 80 dollars comes in .

He ment that he was hoping that newegg is not giving out 9800's with cheap memory. Even though it's more on the vendors (Like ATI or sapphire) doing then anybody else.
