alexis Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 i wasa about to buy a radeon 9600 pro by gigabyte but it seems it is backorder so the guy offered me a celestica radeon, the price was really good, but i never knew a word about this brand, are these cards good, how about TV out? i would really like a card with a nice tv out quality.

Gryph Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Is it also a 9600 Pro? I've never heard of them either but here is their site: http://www.celestica.com/products/Radeon.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexis Posted September 26, 2004 Author Share Posted September 26, 2004 the celestica radeon is a 9600 xt it is about 30 bucks more expensive, which one should i buy the celestica or should i wait for the gigabyte 9600 pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 How long is the wait? If it's about a week of wait, then I'd go for the Gigabyte.30 bucks is a decent amount...that's a little less than the price of a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexis Posted September 26, 2004 Author Share Posted September 26, 2004 i know i know it is just that the brand isn`t much convincing to me, the wait should be about two weeks i have spend almost two motnhs without a computer and starting ot have the abstinence syndrome heehhehe, btw i finally bought an athlon 64 and then regret about it, a sempron 3100 should have been more than enough, oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Yeah, I'd wait the two weeks to save 30 bucks and get a brand that you trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
