I just bought a Sapphire ATI 9600 and Rad shows 325/202. Why doesn't it
show 400 for the memory? Thanks.

Usually the 2nd number, for memory is x2 so that would be 400 then.

What I forgot to add was that my 8500LE registered 250/250. So the memory
ran at 500 on the 8500?

You can see from this chart that the clock rate of 8500LE is 250 and since
it has DDR memory (like your 9600), its effective clock rate is twice that
(500).
You can see both "real" and effective" clock rates of your graphics card
using the EVEREST free tool.
