WOW, are these cards too cheap to be any good?

RuffRyder88 · Jun 7, 2003

I was all set to buy the Crucial 9700 PRO for £240, but then I found the 2 following cards:

Gigabyte MayaII 9700Pro - £210

Hercules 3D Prophet 9700Pro = £235

The Gigabyte one costs the same as a 9700NP!

Is the Gigabyte MayaII a good card?

I WON'T BE OC'ING.

I would appreciate a quick reply.
Thanks.

regards,
bob.

if you won't be o/cing, then i guess there is not a performance difference between the cards.

However, I remember with the radeon 8500's there were different speeds, and i'm not sure if this is done with the 9700's.

here is a review for the gigabyte card.

The R9000PRO comes clocked at a core speed of 325Mhz and a memory speed of 620Mhz (using 310Mhz DDR RAM); the very same as the default ATI cards.

i think the article means r9700pro insteald of r9000pro....
