"$87 ATI Radeon, Feb 6 New egg.com has the OEM 32MB DDR ATI Radeon for $87.99 w/ free shipping. TextThis card is slower than the retail Radeon."

Just copied that off techb@rg@ins; out of my dumb curiosity, how is that possible? I thought OEM and Retail were pretty much the same...

dood check the hot deals forum, this has been ripped apart pretty well by some of our "old farting engineers"

Are these the ones that are clocked at 148Mhz or whatever? Still, for that price, I'd rather have a DDR Radeon than an MX, and I'm sure they'd overclock ok with powerstrip.

Or are these the Radeon LE models?

I think these are the LEs, but they are the same as the regular 32 MBs I read, just need to put in a few reg settings.

Pretty sure those are the LE's. Clock it up to 166+, enable HyperZ via reg, and it is the same as a normal 32 DDR.
