Future shop and best buy (mississauga only store) have this smokin card for 150 cdn. Amazing deal IMO considering the cheapest price anywhere else I've seen is something like 200ish.

My first post on this board so take it easy fellas and felines.

Cheers

PS : This is the full retail box made by ATI, includes the vid card, manual, driver CD and tv out cables. Card has a svideo out and vga out connector.
 
Is there a mod you can perform or an updated BIOS I could get to make this 8500LE into a normal 8500? Or is the only difference clock speeds, and I'd have to over clock it?

You can flash it with a retail BIOS, or you can overlock it with whatever program of choice. It's a good idea to overclock first, make sure it's stable, and the flash the appropriate BIOS.

Disclaimer: Doing so voids most likely voids the warranty, and you can damage your card. etc...

ahh.. the deal above is about $100 US, you're selling your Radeon LE 128 for $117... how is the one at FS/FT any cheaper?
