Anyone know if the non-ATI branded Radeon cards are as good as the ATI cards in video output quality? That is, do they use the same high-quality RFI filter components as ATI?
My local store has ATI Radeon 9700 Pros for $600+ CDN, while the Sapphire Radeon 9500s are less than half that, $280. I'm hoping that the Sapphire's don't output blurrier video than the ATI cards.
It's ironic that my cheapo Geforce 2 GTS card has clearer (non-fuzzy) video output compared to my Geforce 4Ti 4400. I ripped off the relevant RFI filter components off the Geforce2, and the video output is outstanding!
