Full review
The Saphire Radeon 9600 XT is the pinnacle of the 9600 range of graphic cards.
Having previously used the 9600 Atlantis version, I have found it to be a worthwhile upgrade.
This card is fully Direct X 9b compatible and comes with an easy to install software driver. The supplied software allows you to adjust the quality of the display and performance of the card, there is even an overdrive mode that gives you a top clock speed of 526 MHZ (this is safe overclocking as it monitors the card temperature to ensure stability).
Supplied with the card are various leads and adaptors which enable you to use a CRT or LCD monitor and display two monitors simultaneously or diplay on a TV.
Best of all - this graphics card performs beautifully when playing Doom 3.
It is not the best graphics card that money can buy but it is in my opinion the best card for the money.
