Included is the link to the correct video card image: http://www.actbuy.com/details.asp?item=AT10030%2D3 Since it was an error on our behalf, we would like to re-confirm your order.

so what card am i getting now? :Q
 
I wanna buy one of these cards but I am not sure if this is 9800 pro. This card says "Sapphire ATI Radeon 9800 UltraLite." As you can see it does not say 9800 pro in the title, instead it says 9800 UltraLite. On the other hand, if you read product detail page; it will tell you that this game is using "ATI Radeon 9800Pro U" chipset.

Why make these cards so darn confusing? Is it because they want to make fool out of consumers and sell them chip cards for higher price by keeping costumers in dark. I BELIEVE THIS IS LEGAL WAY OF DOING FALSE ADVERTISING. I have been seeing this a lot lately.




Instead by sweet candies... no confusions and satisfactory guaranteed.

ATTENTION! IF YOU GOT IN THIS DEAL, CANCEL IF YOU STILL CAN! The card is a 128-bit, meaning, your card is very limited. Actbuy.com updated their website after selling out, and when looking at the specs at the bottom of the page, you can clearly see that they denote that the card has an interface of 128-bits.
 
Graphics Controller ATI RADEON 9800 Pro
Memory Configuration 128MB DDR (128 bit)

Clock Speed 380MHz
Memory speed 680MHz


Is this what you call bait 'n switch?

Ok, this is too good to be true, what's the catch?

Looks like its 128bit memory interface instead of 256bit.

Hey guys, just got this card.... some notes:

1) Saphire Radeon 9800 Pro Atlantis (color box)
2) "Powered by 128/256MB DDR memory and a 256-bit memory interface"
3) Active cooled
4) Came with Hitman Contracts game, Catalyst CD, Saphire Sticker, RCA cable, Svideo cable, Svideo:RCA adapter, DVI:VGA adapter, 12V Molex adapter/splitter
5) A free Asus XXL Polo Shirt was also in the box. That one was a surprise!

$90 well spent 🙂
