I would like to upgrade my Gforce 2 MX400 to
Radeon 9550 256MB 128Bit or Radeon 9600 Pro 128MB 128Bit

But for some reason i think the Radeon 9600 is better.

Who can help?

Apparantly the Radeon 9550 is a 9600 with slower timing.

I take it the memory timing on the 9950 is set to be slower.

It can be moded to become a 9600 Pro or a 9600 XT.

Mighit be worth getting the 9550 cus then i have a 9600PRO with 256 MB RAM

The 9600Pro might have an RV360 core which then means you can mod it to XT. Between those 2 cards, definetly go with the 9600Pro!
