ATi Radeon HD4850 512MB Grafikkarten Test
|
Während nVidia mit seinem 1,4 Mrd. Transistor schweren Monster nach der Leistungskrone greift, bleibt ATi seiner neuen Strategie treu und präsentiert bezahlbare Hardware mit einer mehr als ausreichenden Leistung. Die HD38xx Serie war der erste Sproß dieser neuen Strategie und konnte vor allem beim S...

Gainward Radeon HD 4850 Golden Sample Graphics Card Review
|
Gainward is one company that we didn't think would ever release an ATI based graphics card, but with Palit acquiring the company a while ago and bringing them in under that massive umbrella, it seemed weird that Palit wouldn't capitalize on the strong Gainward name. We first saw Gainward dip into th...

BFG Tech GeForce GTX 260 OCX Maxcore Tested
|
It's unfortunate then that the GTX 260 OCX Maxcore has been priced out of contention, because in actual fact there's not a lot wrong with it. It delivers more performance than the standard GTX 260 and it's not all that far off a GTX 280 in many scenarios. The only situations where it isn't is when y...

Powercolor Radeon HD 4850 PCS+ Review

And it's clear to see why - the significantly improved cooling and massive overclocking potential unlocked by the excellent Zerotherm GX810 is certainly worth the price premium if you're confident enough to overclock which, thanks to the improved support in Catalyst Control Center, is made almost in...

XFX GeForce 9600 GSO 680M X Edition Review
|
When we first had a look at XFX's GeForce 9600 GSO X Edition during our initial look at AMD's new ATI Radeon HD 4670, we said that the card was too expensive to really be a competitor with the AMD's new card. However, since then the pricing has dropped by around 10 GBP, which makes it only 5 GBP dea...

ASUS GeForce EN9800GT 512MB Video Card Review
|
Today I will be looking at Asus' reference clocked version of the 9800GT 512MB, the EN9800GT. So, many nVidia partners came up with a good marketing strategy for the 9800GT, selling it in the sub-150 USD range, amid the 1GB 9600GTs, 640MB and factory overclocked 8800GTs, 8800GTSs, HD 3870s, and what...

nVidia GeForce GTX 260 216 Shader Grafikkarten Test

Ursprünglich kam die GeForce GTX 260 mit 192 ALUs daher und schafft es so nicht immer, die Radeon HD 4870 zu schlagen. Nun zündet Nvidia den Turbo und modifiziert die Karte. Dazu lässt man einen weiteren Shadercluster aktiv, womit die GeForce GTX 260 nun mit 216 ALUs ausgestattet ist. Reicht das, um...

EVGA GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 Superclocked Video Card Review

The GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 does, without a doubt, improve performance over the original GeForce GTX 260 thanks to the additional 24 shaders that have been added to the graphics card.

nVidia Geforce GTX 260 mit 216 ALU im Test

AMDs HD 4870 ist nicht nur etwas günstiger als Nvidias Geforce GTX 260, sondern in den meisten Fällen auch einen Tick schneller. Nvidia kontert nun mit einer Neuauflage der GTX 260, welche über 216 Shader ALUs verfügt statt bisher 192. An den Taktraten ändert sich nichts.

XFX GTX 280 X Video Card Review

Palit Geforce 280 GTX Review

Palit was gracious enough to send us two of their top-notch video cards to let us test out the true power behind the GTX 280. Now only one question stands in our mind. Can two GTX 280s in SLI run Crysis with maxed-out settings?

NVIDIA released their updated GeForce GTX 260 GPUs which come with 24 extra shaders, for a total shader count of 216. Zotac has also overclocked their card beyond the GTX 280 clock speeds which results in a card that is just 1 percent slower than the regular GTX 280, yet costs over 130 USD less.

AMD ATI Radeon HD 4670 512MB Tested
|
As long as AMD's suggested pricing is right and the competitive landscape doesn't completely change, the 4670 remains a good choice. However, if the market changes around it, the 4670 could begin to look like rather poor value - such is the way with the volatile mainstream graphics card market.

NVIDIA's new GeForce 9400 GT Series is based on the same G96 GPU that is also used on the 9500 GT.

HIS Radeon HD4870x2 Video Card Review
|
The word on the street about eye candy and high resolutions is most definitively true. The single GPU of the standard HD4870 simply couldn't take these settings. At several spots as you can see from the graph, I thought the card had locked up. Certainly not the case with the HIS HD4870x2.

It shouldn't take too long to guess that this is the same card as an 8800 GS, right? I mean, same clock speeds, same memory bus, same wonky 384MB of RAM. Yep, it's just a re-badged GS.
