If so, could you please list all of the retail boxe's contents? [cds, cables, manuals, whatever]

Thanks.

Is it a cost:performance ratio thing, DenisF?

Or is there a paticular reason for the 9500/9700 Pro?  Something to do with the R300 chip?

What is your current system specs?  I have the card, but need the machine!  Embarrassed

Need a new CPU, mobo, and memory. Hope the ATA-100 hard drive will be quick enough to run modern games still.  What do you reckon?

re 3dmark05 - tell me more.  Cheesy

When does that come out?

I suppose I'd better just go over and check @ Futuremark (but I just can't be bothered, I'm so lazy!  Wink)

My system;

Abit NF7-S Revision2.0, Athlon XP-M 2600+@3200+, GeiL Golden Dragon 512mb Dual Channel Kit [2x256mb], and currently an ATi Radeon 8500 64mb, soon to be replaced by an el' sexy Radeon 9700pro 128mb  8)

Should score something like 5.5k in 3dmark03 when i get the 9700 Smiley

As far as your system goes, it's just fine the way it is Smiley
atleast imho

And u know how madonion/futuremark are.... "when it's done", nobody knows yet for sure Smiley
there are some pics floating around, pretty freaking amazing to say the least.
and it *requires* a ps 2.0 card, it just won't boot on ps 1.x...

* x86 compatible processor with SSE support, 2GHz or above

* Microsoft DirectX 9 Summer Update 2004 System Development Kit is required to run the image quality test using the reference rasterizer (3DMark05 Pro).


Alot of info to digest Wink

Anyways, anyone got the contents of 9700p's box yet?

re the 9700p contents.  It's the same as the 9500p contents.

1 x Original Box (naturally Roll Eyes)
1 x Radeon Manual
1 x Driver CD (I think Catalyst Drivers are dated Oct 2002.  Could be wrong).
1 x Radeon 9500/9700p
1 x CRT-DVI adapter dongle
1 x Y- Power cable

That's about it.  The ATI Built cards don't really come with any extras or novelties.  Sad

Was there something in particular you wanted from it?

Re 3DMark05 and my machine.  My machine's ok for now, but requirements are quickly creeping up on me and I can't see how this rig is going to last me throught my final year at uni (come on, I'm gonna need to play some games some nights when I'm not boozing it! Grin) without some updates.

As for 3DMark05, I reckon my score will consist of around -948  Grin.

My current 3DMark03 was around 3.5k - 4k I think.  I can't remember because I formatted my machine last week and have put no benchmarks back on yet.

For your ATI drivers, give OmegaDrivers a try.

http://www.omegadrivers.net/

For me, they are better than ATI's standard and give me more stability and performance.

I have nothing but complaints for ATI's own standard Cat drivers.  Angry

Omega recently released his Cat 4.9 drivers, so check 'em out.  Smiley
