TI's current workstation-class 3D graphics accelerators - dubbed X1 - are the company's latest effort to keep a hand in the high-end 3D graphics market. Consumer-level 3D hardware is now massively powerful, of course, but for all-out 3D performance and rock-solid driver integration you need a card dedicated to the purpose, and ATI claims the X1-128 is it.

A great media-centre card with some nice features – and at an affordable price

Impressive performance for an affordable card, but the 9600 GT treads on its toes.

It was all looking good until Nvidia’s new cards overtook it on the final straight.

Video capture and two full games of your choice make this a Decent alternative to the 7600 GT.

It had little competition at this price, and it knocks Nvidia 8600 cards out of the race, but Nvidia’s 9600 GT trumps it.

The fastest card available, but the XT is better value for money.

Still a half-decent choice if you opt for a 256mb version.

If you have almost $700 to spend, the X1800 XL isn’t the way to go.

We put every current model from ATI and NVIDIA through its paces to find out which offers the best performance and value.

ATI gives the integrated graphics world a kick in the arse, John Gillooly feels the vibrations.

ATI has a new weapon in the battle for the title of kingpin-of-all-game-graphics - it's the 7xx series.

New drivers introduce CrossFireX for Windows Vista and ATI Hybrid Graphics support for Windows Vista.

We’ve examined the data from more than 8000 readers to reveal exactly what sort of reliability, customer service and satisfaction you can expect in 2007.

With CrossFire performance more erratic than SLI, and NVIDIA outgunning ATI with its Shader Model 3 cards, it's hard to recommend this board.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Both graphics card giants have unleashed powerful new additions to their ranks recently, and their battle for supremacy is hotter than ever. We put the new arrivals through their paces

Nick Ross straps himself to ATI’s would-be SLI killer and asks does it deliver the goods?

The new graphics dragon slayer has arrived.
