looking at new vid card... both radeon 9700 (Tx vs. Pro) the only difference i see is the controller speed... is there much of a difference?

128 MB DDR ATI Radeon 9700 TX with DVI and TV-Out

controller speed 263MHz

128 MB DDR ATI Radeon 9700 Pro with DVI and TV-Out

controller speed 324MHz

only difference b/t 9700 non pro and pro is core clock speed and memory speed. many people are flashing the bios and overclocking it to pro speeds.

but what's the performance difference between them (non-overclocked)?
