Sapphire makes ATI's name branded cards, so theoretically they should be the same as a Built By Ati card.
I had a BFG 6600 GT, and it kept freezing and locking up my games. The problem was overheating. 6600GTs run VERY fast; faster, in fact, at least in terms of pure clock speed, then almost any other NVidia based card.
I find this hard to believe. My MSI VIVO 6600GT (which I just replaced with a X800XT) had no problems with overheating, and even overclocked to 570mhz (70mhz over stock) with no problems, and memory hit 540 as well, though I forget if my 6600GT shipped with 450 or 500mhz memory. And mine was AGP, so it had the hot PCI-e to AGP bridge as well.
they all ship with 500mhz mem. agp's are downclocked to make pcie look better
