    Could anyone tell me which card is better between the Powercolor 9880 pro and the ATI Radeon 9800 pro.I know one is slightly cheaper but i do not have a clue what the difference btween the two cards is.


    All advise would be much appreciated

    Thanx

    Dont know much about the Powercolor 9880 but the radeon 9800 pro is a very good card. You are probably best of getting this card.

    Thanks mate, but I made a typing error in my original message. The two graphics cards I meant to say, were the Powercolor 9800 (not the 9880 as I stated) and the Radeon 9800.

    If its a comparison between a Radeon9800 and a Radeon9800Pro, grab the Pro variant. Between makes of ATi based cards, there's not a whole world of difference unelss you're looking for very specific features or very specific makers

    Thanx guys,If i were to order off the newegg site someone told me that i may get hit with an extra charge by the courier when it arrives at the door because it came from the U.S.A.Do you know if this is true or not

    Cheers again
