This is interesting.

Looks like a nice card for the price regardless of the fact that its DX9, however I doubt the HS/Fan will handle the heat output of being clocked to XT/XTX levels.
 
Whoa!!!!! Jetway has another nice deal on the egg, an x1600pro clocked at 600/1200, almost at x1650pro clocks!

I see all-solid-state caps on all the jetway cards...

That IS an awfully small HSF for an X1900. I agree that you'd most likely need some form of aftermarket cooling if you plan to OC that thing at all.

Nice price, though. Good catch, 40sTheme!
 
Pardon me if I sound like a noob here, but even if you can't overclock it to X1900XT speeds, wouldn't it still be faster than the X1950Pro w/ only 12 PPs at a lower price?
 
Typo, typo, typo, typo!

Please pay close attention to the Crossfire connector at the top of the card. IF it was really running a R580 then those would/could not be there. Another give away that this is a typo: Board is using a custom PCB. ATI doesn't allow board partners to use custom PCBs on X1900XT(X)s or X1950XT(X)s.

Well...someone call Jetway about it! 😛

Go to Jetway's website. The specs are right.
 
With a single molex power connector? This seems a bit too good to be true. But who knows? Maybe we will get lucky and it will turn out to be the next X800GTO2. Who wants to buy it first? 😀
 
You can get a 256Meg x1900XT for $199 AMR at the Egg now so I might suggest that rather than hope to get a good overclock if you want a good deal.
 
Whats up with the use of molex connectors when its PCI-e x16 card?!

Those specs look funny. DX10? we all know R5x0 and G7x are not DX10 compliant unless this is the result of using pixie dust. 🙂
 
That must be a typo, if this card is based on the RV370, with aprox 320m transistors, can't have 16 pixel pipelines and 48 pixel shader processors because they're not phisicaly there. I would believe it if it was based on the older core R580 aka Radeon X1950GT which it had the pipelines and shaders disabled. Or like the 7900GT disguised as the 7800GS+ Bliss, following the same pattern, weird eh? 😕
 
All I know is that it doesn't say DX10 on Jetway's Website. It lists the exact same clocks, and lists the 16 PP. It says full DX9 SM 3.0 support, not DX10 on their site. I guess this isn't really worth it, since the X1900XT prices are so low. I didn't realize they had taken that much of a hit after the X1950XT was released. Hmm this is still interesting simply because of the chipset and its limitations... How exactly did they pull it off?
