Help with ATI 9800 Radeon Pro Variations

[Garet Jax]

Hello all,

I am searching on ebay for ATI 9800 Radeon cards and I see a lot of flavours. Some talk about 128 bit, some about 256 bit, some talk about latest DX9 compatability while some are talking about PCB colours and others mention core R360 or R350.

Is there a document that can help me work through the details so I can figure out what is worth spending money on and what isn't?

Thanks.

256-bit is a must, DX9 is a must too. Some PCB's are a blueish green (MSI 9800s) and if you can, buy one with an R360 core. Usually the MSI's with the blueish green PCB and the R360 core clock at XT speeds right out of the box, so I would try to buy that one if you could.
