Just a note to tell anyone NOT to buy a Radeon 9600SE they are crap, get a 9500PRO if you can find one!!! I have just replaced the 9600SE with a 9500PRO my first 3Dmark03 score was 2855 an increase of 61%!!!! (see below for my system details) By the way does anyone know how to check whether a card is a 9500 or a 9500PRO? Windows, 3Dmark reckons its a 9500 not a 9500PRO? Thanks Or you COULD get a 9600 Pro, or a 9600 XT ... SE usually means "Slow Edition". LOL |

You serious? I thought it was Second Edition .. Better than 9600, but with reduced price! (to make room for new cards..).. Damn.. I bought one, and it rocks a little, for the price.. |

I bought one, and it rocks a little, for the price.. I thought SE stood for 'Standard Edition'. I brought a 9600SE video card and it came in a colourful retail box, but it didn't have a load of bundled software, just the driver disk. Adam S |

However it does support DX9 where the 9200 only supports DX8. So it is a bit of a mixed bag. SE meaning "Slow Edition" is more than just a joke, it is the truth. |

Well what you really want for cost effectivness is a standard 9500, make
sure that the memory chips are in a L-Shape pattern (2 are going vertical and 2 are horizontal) then you can run this baby as a 9700 with 8 pipelines and better performance than a 9600, I have a standard 9500 and its running perfectly as a 9700. U can get 9500's for around 50 Uk Pounds on ebay, but they are REALLY hard to find. "John Saunders" wrote in message ... "Adam S" wrote in message ... SE usually means "Slow Edition".

The 9600se is slower than a 9200Pro or 9000Pro - - - - - Remember: In the USA - it is dangeroud to draw or write about Heir Bush in a negative way. The police or SS are called, people threaten to kill you. (What country is this again?) - 15yr old boy in Washington was disciplined for drawing such images. - White House blows cover of an undercover agent because her husband said there were no WMD (before the USA started the war) - her job was finding terrorist. (This makes sense?) God bless the land of the free. Where you can burn the Constitution... Ashcroft does it every day. |
