Nordic Hardware have thrown up their mid-range graphics card review! Here's a snip.
We have two cards in the Testlab today: PowerColor Radeon 9600 XT Bravo Edition and XFX GeForce FX 5900 XT. The first card is a overclocked Radeon 9600 XT and the nVidia-based 5900 XT is the challenger of today. Radeon 9600 XT is known to most of you since a long time. GeForce FX 5900 XT got, strangely, a rather silent launch. Despite that nVidia did not give it much attention the reactions have been good and is often called "the new Ti4200". For you who have lived under a stone for the last years: Ti4200 is one of the most popular cards ever, mostly thanks to its great price/performance ratio. The goal of today's article is simply to examine the best graphics card of these two.

yeah me too, I thought anything about 5900 from Nvidia was high end. Guess because all Nvidia FX Card are still only DX8.1 compatible instead of DX9 based like ATI 9600 and upwards |
