I'm looking at Graphics Cards and I've settled on the ATI All-in-Wonder 9800PRO, I think, but while I was looking around I kept coming up on different "versions" of the 9800 or somthing and I don't Know the difference.
I do know the AIW has the 9800 chipset and TV tuner but thats about it.
So anything you can tell me about the Sapphires, Powercolors, and AIWs would be VERY appreciated.
Thanks

the all in wonder has a TV tuner built in i think. sapphire and powercolor are just different manufacturers but any ATI manufacturer is relatively safe because they enforce strict quality control.

AIWs are made both by ATI and Sapphire...but I find it pretty safe to say you're mentioning the ATI version. Either way, it's a good card - the Sapphire version just tends to be a tad bit less expensive (the normal card) and sometimes PowerColor. All of the above mentioned cards manufacturers good quality cards very similar to the ATI Made versions.

:D Thanks since there looks to be no major difference I'll check the prices on those others.

I have a Sapphire 9600 Pro and I love it. I have a near silent computer and the lack of a fan on the Pro series is great.
