I'm looking for a top-quality Radeon 9600 XT chipset graphics card. Should I go with the Gigabyte or Sapphire Tech version of the 9600 XT? From the New Egg specs it looks like the DDR memory on the Sapphire Tech card runs at 650MHz compared to 600MHz on the Gigabyte. Also, what is included with the Sapphire Tech retail box version of this card that doesn't come with the bulk version?
 
get the sapphire 256 mb version, it uses passive cooling so its' quiet and powerful. (But not too powerful, or else the passive cooling would be a bad idea 🙂

yeah, good idea.

oh wait! <slaps forehead> the 256meg model has slower clockspeeds, and the extra 128megs of ram is worthless.
