You sure it ain't choppy!?

You want some screenshots ?

And a screen shot would prove it's not choppy how?

he has a point

Hey, I don&#39;t think screenshots are necessary, if anyone is to hardcore not to take your word for it they need some help lol
Although, you may wanna take some screenshots now and then take some after you get your new card, just to see the difference. For no one else but yourself. [/b][/quote]
Good idea kaiweiler. thanks

@clocker
I would take a few screendshots with Fraps to show him the framerate

EDIT: THIS IS GETTING OFF-TOPIC

i dont no this for sure, but my guess would be that the 9600 Pro is hackable to a 9600 XT........ at least, that seems to be true for its successors........maybe anyone here knows something more?

[haha21]

lol anyways.
If you want gaming 9600PRO is good enough, but you want to know your temp of your video card I guess 9600XT. Because it has thermal sensors.

so if i get a x800pro i can OC to equal the x800xt?


edit: if i&#39;m gonna fork out £300 for a graphics card i might as well throw in an extra 60 and see where that takes me

On the Neowin.net forum (look here) someone said that the 9800 SE can be overclocked to a 9800 PRO

Maybe that would be a good deal.Buying a SE and overclocking it to a PRO

no, you can mod/hack it to an XT

just flash the bios

you do need extra cooling for it though......... just google of hacking a pro to an xt, youll get lots of info...

opinions ??

[Storm]

he/she is talking about softmodding.......... thats different from OC&#39;in

if you OC, you raise the clockspeed
if you softmodd/hack/flash bios you "trick" the card into thinking its a higher classed card, and thus it will run at higher speeds........

if you can softmodd, you should chose this option, since it is possible for the card to run at exactly that higher speed (sometimes aditional cooling is required)
