Sapphire Radeon X1950PRO 512MB AGP |
|
|
|

Sapphire’s AGP offering comes in the form of a single slot X1950PRO that has 512MB of onboard GDDR3 memory. The GPU comes clocked at 580MHz and the memory at 700MHz (1400MHz effective).



Sapphire has chosen to use two traditional molex connectors in place of the newer 6-pin PCIe power adapter. We feel this is a smart move as most users buying this card would probably not have the latest power supply unit in their system.
The heatsink is made of aluminum and covers nearly the entire length of the board. The cooling solution is not bulky though, and thus the card ends up occupying only one slot. The card comes with two DVI outs along with a single S-Video out. The PCI Express to AGP bridge that NVIDIA uses can be seen in the above photo and is covered by a pink thermal pad for protection.
