[Schadenfroh]

This guy a crackhead?

cause i dont rember there being one with one, or did some AIB maker build one with DDRII?

ATI demo'd some cards with DDR2 late last year IIRC, but no cards that I'm aware of were built for the retail channel. r300 does support DDR2.

and considering that the guy is surely a cracked to claim:

ATI Radeon 9700 PRO 128MB DDRII 8X AGP RETAIL

...

IT STILL HAS THE FULL RETAIL WARRANTY. (5 YEARS)

surely it can't be a retail card and even if it did ati does 3 year warranties last i knew.

One other clarification is in regards to DDR2 memory support. Late last week rumors were floating around that ATI?s DDR2 demonstration wasn?t actually running as DDR2 memory. ATI reiterated that the RADEON 9700 memory controller does indeed support DDR2 and that was the memory type used in the demonstration board.

Evdawg, this is where I saw that softmod you're referring to awhile back.

Mod your Radeon 9500 into a Radeon 9500 Pro or your 9700 into a 9800 with this patch
