Strengths: Can play many of the "modern" games at good frames per second, compared to other cards that are 4 years old. still beats many of the lower end new generation cards fps wise. ati has a great warranty
Weakness: it's an old card only 128mb ram
if you have a newer card these came with the same gpu's as the 9800xt's so you can theoretically run it like a 9800xt without the 256mb of ram. if you can find a card for less than a eighty dollars it's a good deal. I'd choose this over the ati 1300's, and geforce 6200s any day. at 15-70fps i still pwn on CSS.
Strengths: Smooth, Great Price ($149.99 after rebates)
Weakness: When I play a game or do 3dMark It crashes, I think
I purchased this along with my HDTV Wonder. Read my review on that too! Whenever I run 3dMark05 or 3dMark03 everything will be fine for like 30 sec or 1 min. All of a sudden my computer beeps and the screen shows some wired crazy stuff, usaully a rought multicolored-dark colored look to it. I have sent ATI 3 emails and have not otten any responce in over 12 days. Very frusterated. I can play...
Strengths: This card is super fast and skips the bs.... anyone who plays high end games must get this card ! This is a power users dream card.
Weakness: Definetly none.... every aspect of this card is built for performance.... NO WEAKNESSES.
I read all the hub bub about the 9700Pro and decided to get the All in Wonder9700Pro (Great Card!).... But this card is better, most Tech sites say it's about 17% better, i say it's at least 25%.... I play Unreal, Black Hawk Down and Rainbow Six 3... NO PROBLEM, everything at it's highest settings and the card still burns rubber.... The graphics are fantastic ! There isn't a card out there... not...
Strengths: The image quality is out of this world -- you won't find a graphics board with better visuals than this. This card is very stable, and I am absolutely glad I purchased it.
Weakness: none
If you are looking for a high-end graphics card, the Radeon 9800 Pro is your number 1 choice. I have been playing Max Payne on it since it (Radeon 9800 Pro) arrived -- the graphics are so good I can't put them into words. My older graphics card would not run Max Payne. Now with this board, I should be happy for about 18 months or even longer -- imagine that, 18 months with no worry about...
Strengths: GPU can overclock to over 450MHz
Weakness: Memory cant overclock to more than 378MHz and actually decreases as you increase the GPU voltage.
I overclocked my 9800Pro to over the speed of an XT and it worked perfectly. I have been tweaking my Sapphire 9800Pro for about a month now, using overclocking utilities, BIOS flashes, and volt-mods.
Strengths: The bomb best card out there for the money no need for any other
Weakness: None that i can find,get the new drivers after you get it
Very easy to install,blows away the nvidia 5600 card i had,i did not know how sharp and clear and the color was until i bought this card on my NEC moniter see more things in games,best 300.00 i could spend
Strengths: FAST, leading performance and well-built software
Weakness: Weak stock cooler (Only noticeable with most of the fans off)
Great video card. I'm using P4 3.2 GHz, P4C800-ED, 1Gb PC3200, 160Gb 7200RPM SATA HD, I've seen the maximum potential this thing can run at and it's probably the best card you can get. (Excluding the 9800 XT, which costs an excessive amount of money for the performance gain) The only thing is that you might want to add a good aftermarket cooler, because unless you're running an absurd number of...
Strengths: For gaming: Super fast and breath taking speed and image quality. All the Above: Awsome
Weakness: The card is great but one problem, its OVERheats.
I was suprised with the abilities this video card had. I was amazed the 3dmark score this thing can achieve. Well im running a 3.4 ghz processor(overclocked), P4C800, and 1 GB of PC3200(2 sticks of 512). My 3dmark score was about 5803, without overclocking. Well, if you overclock this thing to 459mhz core, and 782mhz ram clock, you will get over 6500 3dmarks depending on the setup you have...
Strengths: Outstanding performance.
Weakness: Price is a little high compared to other cards.
You certainly get the best hardware from ATI. The performance metrics on the adapter is amazing. I have not found any other adpater that can provide the 3D rendering performance found on the 9800 Pro.

ATI RADEON 9800 PRO Graphics Card
Strengths: Great, great card! Not a lot I can add to what others have written. I know this is probably redundant and most of you know to update the drivers, but with this card it is really really critical.
As I posted above, most of the comments posted by other reviewers are accurate. This is a terrific card and I'm glad I spent the money on it. The only thing I would really point out that I think is not stressed enough is... immediately update the drivers from the website! I can't stress this enough!
