R9200 vs R9000 review

[TheGreatGrapeApe]

CoolTechZone has a <A HREF="http://www.cooltechzone.com/reviews/video_cards/r9200_1.html" target="_new">Review</A> that shows the give and take, which is surprising considering they are the same core, and the major diff. was supposed to be the 8X AGP. The review didn't say what the speeds were for the R9000 in the review so they could've mistakenly put it up against a pro, but it still doesn't explain the see-saw action, as one would be VPU hog and yet in another bench that should be VPU dependant it's doesn't do as well, odd i(WTF?!?), whish I knew which R9000.

Interesting none the less. Q3 & UT2K3 v. ST-EliteForce, JKII and Comanche .

Guess our view that the R9000>R9200 depends on how you look at it.

wow! how is the 9000 pro getting that score in 3dmark '03.

Yeah, I didn't really think about it (usually forget 3Dmk if it not more detailed info). But that must be 3Dmk01 scores (which would be a bit low I would think), because I've not seen a non DX9 card break the 2K barrier, even the GF4 has trouble. PS1.4 worth THAT much? MY R9600 goes STOCK at those scores <A HREF="http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=717853" target="_new">See my First run with the new (then) card</A>.
