Hmmm, is that the Hercules 3D Prophet 9700 Pro? With all the blue ram sinks and the copper cooler for the core with another copper heatsink on the back of the card?

lol, that card looks awesome from what pictures I have seen. Anyway, I dont think many people have that card yet since its just being introduced to the market. Where did you get it at?

Hercules Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB DDR - Retail (GX-011-HE)
The fastest gaming card available, with exceptional performance in resolutions past 1024x768 and upto 3 times faster than a GF4 Ti4600 when using FSAA and anisotopic filtering which greatly improves image quality. The Radeon 9700 offers truly staggering visual quality while still boasting the fastest frame rates around - coupled with ATI's usual superb DVD playback performance makes this the ultimate graphics card available today.

Reviews may be found at The Firing Squad, Anandtech and Sharky Extreme.

Features :
• Copper based heatsink to improve cooling
• Ramsinks allowing a massive 310MHz ram speed
• Rear Heatsink to further improve cooling

Connections :
• VGA
• TV Out
• DVI (DVI to VGA adapter included for using two vga monitors at once)




Price: £256.50 (£301.39 Including VAT at 17.5%)
 
You would get more help at www.rage3d.com - they have a massive section for our cards. If I were you I would read the Driver Installation for NOOBs - http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?s=&threadid=33653875

I followed all those steps, installed the latest 3.0 and direct x 9 drivers and my system runs great. If you install the 3.0 drivers you must go to Display Properties/Settings/Advanced/Troubleshoot and UN-Check "Enable write combining" this fixed the stuttering and texture problems i got in MOH:AA and MOH:Spearhead. These are the only games I play so I dont know how other games run.
