here we see a few errors..
1) on the gpureview page, 9200 radeon listed as agp 8x i believe this is incorrect and its actually a agp 4x card
2) on the japamac list (
http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php?topic=267.msg13820#msg13820) he lists the 9200 as being better then the 8500.. specs on gpurview show this to be incorrect.. (a common mistake because of the model number being lower)
texture fill + vertex rates are almost double on the 8500, which was meant to be a higher end gaming card of the year 2001
the 8500 is the most supported radeon card on mac os 9.. i have never ever had a problem with this card + its really a quick card compared to all my other cards.. its my best mac os 9 card that i own currently. 100% .. just be sure not to get 8500 LE as this is not the same as the real 8500 mac edition
