Sapphire, HIS, Powercolour or MSI?

hi
i want to buy a new graphics card and i have decided to go for ATI 9800 Pro chipset
4 manufacturers listed above sell a card with such chipset at about the same price
now is there any difference between them? or are they all the same? (performancewise)

cheers

Get the Retail ATI card you cannot go wrong there. The other manufactures just do not have the quality control that ATI does. Also The new 9800 Pro has a r360 core same as XT easy bios flash to an XT. Here is my benchmark from the flash ATI retail card running this way for over a year.

Get either mSIor Built By ATi, they would more than likeley both have good RAM, that is overclockable
