Sorry I had just read a couple of reviews <snip> ATI’s Radeon 9000 core is strikingly similar to the R200 core (better known as the Radeon 8500), with a few minor additions and some features cut out. The Radeon 9000, at a first glance, is what the NV17 (better known as GeForce4 MX) should have been- a full fledged DX8.1 card for under $100 that will be able to handle most games out there today without a hiccup. </snip> Ref.http://www.amdmb.com/article-display.php?ArticleID=203&PageID=2 I still wonder wether trying to convince X it has to do with the 8500 might not help...
