powercolour ones come with an AC x2 fan.. saphires dont...or mine didnt... 
you have to buy a particular x2 fan as well(the one that comes supplied with a voltage regulater heat spreader...apparently...its needed for the pro version...and even then..you have to mod it for the sapphire pro.....because saphires have 2 molex connectors on the card...most agp only have 1... |

MD5 Hash: AA059AF8F11BFE48A989FC1481B96007 ... All NVIDIA and ATI cards except for Radeon X1950 Pro are supported in this release. I guess it's only overclocking and not temperature monitoring that's affected ? |
