a true x1900xt?

[mrfatboy]

Is this card a true x1900xt performance wise? The price is very cheap. Some people in the newegg reviews are suspicious of it. Someone in the review said is really is just a x1900.

It's the same default clocks as my ATi Radeon X1900XT 512 MB according to the specs.

256mb

There is no such card "X1900". There's 256MB X1900GT or 256MB/512MB X1900XT/XTX. In this case, it's a 256MB X1900XT.

Never EVER read the NewEgg reviews about video cards unless you're doing it purely for entertainment purposes.

This is acutually a lower quality and speed 1900 GT version. Not the better XT. Is Sapphire trying to pass the wrong model????? This happened to 3 friends of mine and the forums are talking about this too.

i'd like to know what this guy is basing this info on. and what forums is he talking about?

well, that dude is the only one to have said that, so I wouldn't trust him. Just looks like a good deal.

Does anyone know if it's possible to use two CrossFire Edition cards in a CF setup instead of one XT/XTX and one CF Edition?

To the OP, you'll have to read through some benchmarks to see for sure if it's worth it. From what I've read on here, this is a great price/performance buy. Although something in me says to go for 512mb of memory, but I've always been a memory whore

their all full of sh!t, i got one, and its an x1900xt with 256mb of mem, the person who says on his computer it comes up as a x1900gt either has bad software, or a piece of sh!t computer

But I do go with a large number of votes to be sure...say 90% of 200 votes who give a 5 stars, you cannot go wrong with that...
