Radeon 9700 pro

[arunr]

I was looking around for a 9700 pro and the only place it seems to be available is ebay. have they discontinued this card or something? Even ATI does not sell this on their site.

i did manage to find a 9700 all-in-wonder though, but not what i'm looking for...

i was just curious as to why there are very few of these available...

are they being discontinued?

They were discontinued so you really can find them on ebay or the FS/T forums

I just picked one up on the FS forum for $120 shipped. I believe the card is 2 generations old now (don't quote me on that) so that's probably why they are hard to find. Check pricewatch, though. I think there's a bunch on there.

For such an old card, it's clearly one of the best Radeon cards ever made. It beats out nearly every Radeon 9x00 card but the 9800 Pro / XT... which seem to barely squeak by it.

If your interested I'm selling my 9700pro with zalman passive heatsink on it for $120 shipped.

I scored a Radeon 9700 Pro with Artic Silencer Rev3 for $80 shipped on the forums. You can sometimes find good deals.

earthwormjim's vid card is a great deal. And Sniper... that is an awsome deal!

I "upgraded" to a 9800pro from a 9700pro and saw mabye 3-5 fps jump. Then 9700 pro truly is a good card.
