Sapphire launches R9600/9800 Ultimate editions
Posted: Fri Jul 25, 2003 1:45 am
Well these have been discussed a few times already, but today Sapphire officially launched the two cards.
For those who aren't up to speed with these cards, they are basically a Radeon 9800pro and a 9600pro with a Zalman passive heatsink installed, which of course makes them silent.

There's a couple of links to articles about the two cards, together with pictures and benchmarks (I think there hasn't been a review of the 9800 ultimate before these).
Must say that the 9600pro ultimate is looking really nice performance and price wise, I may just have to get one myself
It's really great to see how companies are starting to invest more and more in silent components.
