Sapphire Atlantis RADEON 9800SE 128MB 128bit
"Conclusion
Sapphire Atlantis RADEON 9200 PCI 64MB 64bit belongs to the Low-End level, the speed is matching, but the low price is adequate to the card's capabilities, plus it can be installed into the systems without AGP;
Sapphire Atlantis RADEON 9200SE 128MB is a similar solution, plus, its price will quickly fall down to $40;
Sapphire Atlantis RADEON 9800SE 128MB 128bit - the tests show that the maximum possible price for such card is $130 (today you can find them even at $200 and over since far not everyone knows the difference between two 9800SE versions), the pipelines unlocking helps it reach the level of the RADEON 9500 PRO and even a higher one but this operation doesn't guarantee the success;
Sapphire Atlantis RADEON 9800 128MB: I hope the price for this card will correspond to its capabilities; it has almost no competitors in its price segment;
Sapphire Atlantis RADEON 9800 PRO Lite 128MB is a unique product: its performance is almost on the level of the RADEON 9800 PRO, though sometimes it's a bit lower, but its price is pretty low (it's the current price/speed leader);
PowerColor RADEON 9800SE 128MB 256bit (Gold) is overpriced. Sometimes it yields to the RADEON 9600 PRO having the price about $260. One had better get the RADEON 9700 PRO which has 8 pipelines and a 256bit bus and where there's nothing to unlock.
In our 3Digest you can find full comparison characteristics for video cards of this and other classes.
Remember that there are two kinds of the RADEON 9800SE on the market: with a 256bit bus (the design of the RADEON 9700 PRO, red textolite, black reference cooler, memory chips located at the angle of 90 deg.); and with a 128bit bus (unique design similar to the RADEON 9500 PRO, the textolite can be of different colors, but such cards are currently produced only by Sapphire, that is why the textolite is black, the memory chips are located in a line). There is also the THIRD kind which differs from the SECOND one in the memory chips (TSOP instead of BGA).
