Advantages: everything... Disadvantages: at my point of view nothing really
The GeForce 8600GTS XXX edition from XFX, I own this card and is just fantastic, I bought this card because I can't afford the powerful one's at the moment but if you buy this card you will see that is not very much different than the powerful one's. At the moment I am playing Crysis which is a fantastic game and with this card Im able to get about 20 frames per second everything at max, everything at mid I get about 30 frames per second at 1280*1024 resolution which is playable, but you can get a bit more depending on your system. As I said its fantastic, you will also be able to play HD, blu-ray movies with no problem because this card is HDCP fully capable, Direct X 10 and many other features, and for gamers like me if you buy 2 of these and put them into SLI mode if your motherboard support it them my friends it will be awsome. ...
Advantages: everything Disadvantages: not to use high resolutions greater than 1600*1200
The fantastic graphics card from XFX the 8800 GS XXX edition, this card is insane and I personally recomend it to everyone who wants to play games but not spending a lot of money. Fantastic results coming from this card on 3DMARK gets around 10000, on the 8800 GS the clocks are 580Mhz core, 1400Mhz memory but this one is the XXX edition running at 680Mhz core, 1600Mhz memory a little bit faster, this one gets better results and is perfect for those people that are not sure how to overclock it or don't trust overclocking it, this is a factory overclock so is tested and is perfect stable you won't have any problems with this card. For advanced gamers the card is tottaly overclockable so if you want to push a little bit further than it already is you can without a problem, my friend has this card running at 740Mhz core and 2070 memory he ...
Advantages: Bargain, good performance Disadvantages: None
I know my review is well behind the others already on here, but I only bought my 8800GTX around a month or so ago. Either way, I have left reviews for this card on other sites so I thought I would share my thoughts on what I think is a great bargain.
I bought this card from the Videocardshop in the UK for £80 and its the best thing I have bought for a while. I didn't have the money for top cards out at the moment, so thought I'd go for something cheaper that would still do a good job. I can play most latest games without any problems with this card, and so far I don't have anything to complain about.
It was easy to install, plus the support from XFX is pretty good too (I went to them to see where I could get updated drivers) so all in all, I'm happy :) ...
