Hey guys... just spotted this at Newegg (I'm on the market for a budget card).

Sapphire Radeon 9600 PRO 128Mb - $100

By looking at the picture of the board it looks exactly the same as that bogus Sapphire Radeon 9600 PRO Advantage that was mentioned in other posts (an overclocked 9600). Could this be a good deal for a budget vid card ?

Or should I stay with my first option?

Info-Tek Radeon 9600 PRO 128Mb - $113

BTW... could the Info-tek one be taken to 9600 XT levels ??

Thanks.

The specs of both match a true 9600pro.

As far as I can tell, they are both the same. I can't see spending $13 more for the same card.

The quoted 600mhz memory matches that of a 9600 pro. You should be alright.
