Hi all as it's my birthday next week the better half as offered to get me a better graphics card, my question is, is the Sapphire 9800 Atlantis256MB any good? I haven't heard of the "Atlantis" before and wondered is it just a standard ati 9800, or like the "SE" a poor perfomer. many thanks in advance, Chris :)

The ATI 9800, 9800pro and 9800XT are all good cards. Its only the SE varieties that suck!
Might be worth thinking about the new gen cards though too. I cant remember the equivilant of the 9800pro though right now.

Hi Gixer
It has to be a second hand card as money is tight (4 kids and Xmas need I say more)

I just noticed your avatar 4Series. Is that Elite? Looks like it to me. I had that very one on my BBC B micro!
4Series is right on the price too

The 9800 atlantis is not an se. Atlantis is a Sapphire brand, and they are known to be very reliable for labelling their cards truthfully.
