ATi Radeon 9700 Full Release Review w/ Benchmarks
Chalupa_Man writes: "ATi Technologies has officially released their new Radeon 9700 Pro today.
Real benchmark numbers and a full review can be found here. The card is
impressive for sure and should have NVIDIA on the ropes for a while, as it beats
out a GeForce 4 Ti 4600 handily, especially with Anti-Aliasing and Anisotropic
Filtering enabled. Image quality is also top notch for this new high end DX9 compliant
product from ATi." sunny_talwar adds these links to more reviews of the new high-end Radeon at AnandTech's and Tom's Hardware.

A white american, an afro-american and an american jew are walking on a beach, and stumble upon an empty whisky bottle. When they brush the sand off the label, a spirit appears from the flask.
'You have released me from my captivity, and each of you will have a wish granted', the spirit promises. After some discussion, it is agreed that the jew goes first:
'I wish all the jewish people are returned to our holy land Israel, and that we can live there in peace.'
'Done', the spirit thunders, and the jew disappears.
The afro-american goes second. 'I wish all the children of Africa are united there, and will forever live in peace.'
'Done', the spirit says, and the afro-american also disappears.
'So, you are the last to have your wish granted - what is it to be?', the spirit asks of the white american.
'Wait a minute, you're saying all the jews are in Israel now?'
'It was asked, and it became so', the spirit says solemnly.
'And all the blacks are in Africa?'
'Yes, of course.'
'I'll just have a martini, thanks'.
Wow, what a stupid name, I think it should be {H,T}ard OCP.
I've had enough abrasive sigs. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.

What you meant was it is more or less a tie, unless you turn on AA, but thanks for the unbiased summary!
semantics are everything!
Ok, cool. But where is the linux driver. O, that's right ATI is a pus**, and does not support linux. I guess they like geting bent over by bill gates.
I've got fully functional legs and live a happy and productive life. And you don't.
Just thought you'd appreciate the reminder in case you got too cocky.
Which is better?
(a) OpenGL(b) DirectX 8
(c) Glide(d) DirectX 7
(e) Sex with a mare?But, where are the spelling errors asswipe? Go troll on your mother's saggy ass bitch. That's right you AC (anonymous cocksucker).
