I think I'd stick my neck out and say it's an ATi Radeon 9800 XT : - ))

Well I assumed all the boxes said ATI on it but in the UK all boxes
should also have the manufacturer on them since AFAIN you can't buy the
ATI ones. Only Sapphire, HIS etc.

So this is what the ATI made ones are boxed in? Maybe they got hold of
some or they are available in the UK after all.

Not a totally ridiculous question was it? ;)

There is also the possibility that the picture seen is not exactly what they
are selling, but borrowed from ATI for Marketing Purposes.

The box says ATI. What is the confusion?

The box looks like a Connect3d box to me, but they usually have Connect3D
on it.

nope, connect3d does not have any 9800XT product on offer.
What me disturbs most is that ATi products seem to dominate the grey market
from China!
Ati can be bought in fairly good looking but very unspecific retail boxes.
U pay a lot of money without an idea who manufactured the card, no contact
information about the manufacturer or support. I dont like this...I dont
prefer this! This is my first ATi card I own and I doubt I'll ever buy a
second one.

Looks Identical to the US Packaged 9800 XT's I've seen those on retail
shelves andon the ATI website. and are sold as ATI's OWn

But remember just because the picture shows the real deal, it doesn't mean
that the card you'll get is the one in the picture. Check this place out to
make sure it's a good place to buy from. JLC
