The X800 PRO gets to fight the X800 XT and the 9800 XT, to analyse where it sits in relation to its faster sibling and the outgoing performance champion.Powerstrip saw the clocks as follows.
445.5MHz (891DDR) is a few MHz shy of the stated reference clocks of 900DDR, so bear that in mind when comparing performance.
