My New Video Card

















I recently updated my dying Radeon 9500 Pro AGP 8x video card, with this upgrade Radeon 9600XT. I am trying to stretch my current system out for another year or two before I totally scrape it for an updated motherboard that accepts PCI-E and maybe a Core2Duo. But that's another story.

After 3 days this card has been running great.
Here's the specs...
Sapphire Radeon9600XT
AGP 4x/8x
Core 500Mhz
256 MB DDRII RAM
Memory 580-650 Mhz
Shader Units 4
Memory Bandwith 10.4 GB/sec

My old card had 3659 when it was stable, I got up to 4252 with overclocking but I think this may have accelerated my video cards death. I have no plans to overclock my new card.
