It's been a while since ATI?s spring line-up was announced, and its taken even longer for them to come to market. While Radeon 9800 PRO?s were reviewed in early March, but only made available in April, and 9600 PRO?s have only recently been seen, oddly it?s the low end Radeon 9200?s that have taken the longest to break cover. Today, however, courtesy of Sapphire we take a look at the very entry level of ATI?s Spring line up with a review of the Sapphire Atlantis 9200 64MB. In comparison to the Radeon 9000 PRO we see that the 9200 Sapphire board is relatively simplified with few components on it. The board itself is only marginally lower profile than the 9000 PRO boards, but the DVI and VGA connections are the opposite way around. Although the core is running at 250MHz, only 25MHz lower than the 9000 PRO, ATI and Sapphire feel that it produces sufficiently low heat output that passive cooling only is warranted, however it would be advisable not to touch it when in use
