9500pro softwarematig gelimiteerde 9700?

[Alfa Helix]

Ik las vandaag dit op digit life

Gaat om een review van de Sapphire 9500pro (128MB)

Een stukje conclusie

It's probable that the RADEON 9700 was turned into the RADEON 9500 on the software level. But it's only a supposition, we don't promise that with the 9500 you will get the 9700 free. The examination is not completed yet as there is one more interesting aspect to cover - the chip is coupled with the 256-bit bus, though it was expected that the 9500 would have both the pipelines and the memory controller stripped down (in this case the chip wouldn't be able to send more than 128 bits at a clock cycle). It's possible that such reduction was made exactly on the software level, and it's different in case of the 64MB and 128MB cards, while the chip is the same.

Is eigenlijk best interessant....en bied perspectieven

Ik moet zeggen dat ik niet echt laaiend enthousiast kan zijn over de benchmarks die ze daar laten zien van de 9500pro. Ik had er eigenlijk meer van verwacht.

(overigens is deze kaart bij informatique voor 219 euro te krijgen )
