Card Layout:
The specifications are what you would expect from a Radeon 9600
graphics card.
You may look at it and think what a
puny little fan that is- the cooling system looks a lot smaller than the other Radeon cards (9500,9700,9800) and your right, it is. This is because the Radeon
9600 Pro is based on the 0.13µ process. The GPU remains much cooler than its
counterparts and therefore requires a smaller, and of course, quieter cooling
solution.
When the cards are compared (9600
on left, 9500 on the right) it is
quite easy to see the vast reduction in cooling required thanks to the new
processor technology.
A closer look and we find that FIC has used
Samsung's K4D263238E-GC memory modules. Each module has a 350Mhz max
freq. and a 700Mbps/pin max data rate.
The A96P is also equipped with the now pretty much standard VGA,
S-Video, and DVI connectors for all of your viewing needs. Time to test the
cards and find the best buy for your money.
