Sapphire RADEON 9800 ATLANTIS 128MB DDR AGP8X TVO/DVI (OEM)

Saw this posted here Link was wondering if this a good deal ?

And what is the difference in this card and ATi RADEON 9800 PRO 128MB DDR AGP8X TVO/DVI

couldnt find anything in search about these cards.

Just wanted to add this link to sapphires page Link It says its the 9800 pro chipset. Does that mean it will be clocked the same as 9800 pro ?

This looks like a 9800 Non-Pro, which means it is just clocked at a slower speed than the 9800 Pro. I'm not going to go exactly how much MHz, etc, but this is a very nice card. Also, just for FYI: you can buy this at your local Circuit City for $249 (no rebates), and it will be Retail, meaning you get the whole box, with all the extra goodies.

This one might still be a good deal, as the Sapphires are supposted to be much more over-clockable than most of the others, usually up to regular 9800Pro speeds and beyond.

Tons of stuff about these cards in Video forum, just have to look deeper, and Anand has posted about the 9800NP versus the 9700Pro and 9800Pro. Beware the 9800SE though.

Looks like this vendor is pretty good, although some problems with RMA's. I'd say this deal is warm. good luck, let us know what you get if you do order.

This card looks the same as the one from newegg (item N82E16814102292), which sells for $243 w/ free shipping.
