We do not make a product called the "ULTRA TURBO".

The GRAPHICS PRO TURBO and the WINTURBO has a couple of differences;

The GRAPHICS PRO TURBO is our top of the line RETAIL product.  It has a
5 year warranty, can be upgraded, (from 2Mb to 4Mb), has both standard
DLX AutoCad support as well as special SoftEngine F/X drivers.  Finally,
the GRAPHICS PRO TURBO can display 1280x1024 at up to 75Hz.

The WINTURBO is available as both a RETAIL products (with a colorful
box) and as an OEM product, (in a plain white box).  The RETAIL version
carries ATI's standard warranty of 5 years, the OEM card has a 2 year
warranty.  WINTURBO can not be upgraded, but comes in both 2Mb and 4Mb
flavors, and finally, the WINTURBO can display at 1280X1024, but at 60Hz
only.

Please note: General speed, performance and features between the two
products is identical.


DL>I want to run the card with 1152x864x24 @ >76 Hz under Windows and Linux (XF
  >3.1.1). Can you tell me which card of the above is capable to do this?

Only the GRAPHICS PRO TURBO (with 4Mb) will display at this
resolution/colordepth.
