    Pretty much. From the top of my head:

    OEM: Same as Xtreme Music, without gold plated connectors
    Xtreme Music: The standard one (2MB X-RAM).
    Platinum: XM with a front bay.
    Fatal1ty: Platinum with 64MB X-RAM.
    Elite Pro: Improved DAC, improved op-amp, external box.. significant premium.

    The features within the card is all the same.

    Sounds like the Platinum is for me then - I've been surviving with onboard sound for that last 9 months. I can't imagine 62MB of xtra XRAM will make any significant difference in the short term.

    Can some of the software that comes with the Platinum be used on a pc without the hardware that it is shipped with? I ask cause my mate likes the software that comes with the platinum i bought.

    The last 2 days ive booted up the PC, its got to the desktop, waited, then re-booted itself with no signal to monitor.

    Iam running ATI-tool on start up and it asks me every time, about the X1800XT 3d/2d clocks thing, even though i check the box not to tell me again.
