I want to buy a new graphics card. There are three different 64m DDR Radeon 8500's. I find an Radeon 8500, a Radeon 8500DV and a Radeon 8500LE. What are the differences and which one is better.Thanks !:)
 
Just get a retail boxed version of the Radeon 8500, stay away from the "LE", and "DV" which are both clocked slower, and in the DV's case uses slow memory modules because of stability issues with the built in multimedia controller. Waste of money completely. Look for "RETAIL" advertisement that comes in the skull ATI box. Stay away from everything else.
