Amid all the ballyhoo surrounding the launch of the Radeon 9600XT and 9800XT, you may have not noticed that ATI also launched an addition to its All-in-Wonder series, the All-in-Wonder 9600 Pro card.
Unlike previous All-in-Wonder products, the AIW 9600 Pro has benefited from some tinkering to the memory clock. With a speed of 650MHz, it runs 50MHz faster than the standard 9600 Pro. So, although it sits in the product line between the 9600 Pro and the 9600XT, its performance edges it closer to that of the 9600XT.
Also new is the FM tuner added to the Philips analog TV tuner. Because of this additional input, there's a new output port and cable bundle for the video out functions.
Another addition is dual monitor support, something the AIW series had been lacking.
Sapphire's AIW Radeon 9600 Pro is identical to the ATI reference design, a compact design with only a small cooling fan on the GPU while the 128MB of DDR memory chips have no cooling all.
As you might expect with an All-in-Wonder, the box is full of goodies. Apart from the new cable bundle, which has the dual VGA outputs (it would be useful if the number one cable was a different colour), there's a composite video cable, video/audio input block, Remote Wonder and the Remote receiver.
The software bundle comprises Pinnacles Studio v8 SE, the Redline overclocking utility and a full version of Tomb Raider - The Angel of Darkness.
