ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Graphics Card

Radeon 9800 value is a working-card question: these run hot and the capacitors age, so a tested AGP card with an intact cooler clears untested boards easily.

The ATI Radeon 9800 Pro was the undisputed GPU king of 2003. Built on the R350 architecture, it dominated benchmarks and became the card every PC gamer wanted. The Pro and XT variants delivered cutting-edge DirectX 9 performance, while Medion's XXL rebrands brought it to the European mainstream through retail PCs. AGP-era graphics cards are increasingly collectible, with the 9800 Pro sitting at the top alongside the GeForce FX 5900. Working units with original coolers command the highest prices, while Sapphire and MSI-branded cards are particularly sought after. The Mac Edition is exceptionally rare.
