A stunningly powerful card that tops the last generation’s best dual-GPU monsters.

Impressive Blu-ray performance from the cheapest card on test.

A powerful card at a competitive price – a deserved victory to cap ATI’s remarkable turnaround

Fair price, but better-equipped cards cost a similar amount.

Yes, it’s fast, but is that enough anymore? Poor drivers and a high price tag are enough to put us off.

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

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.

A wiser purchase than the XTX, this is the best of the top-end cards.

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

A well featured card, but it can’t match the 7600 GS for value.

It’s affordable, quiet, and has plenty of features.

Another card for media centres offering Avivo at a low price.

The 9600 GT redefines the mainstream graphics market, offering high-end power at a mid-range price. At this price we want one.

Playable frame rates at 1600 x 1200 and the latest features for under $460. A great-value choice.

Great gaming performance has never been so affordable. We test 22 current cards from Nvidia and ATI to find what works and what doesn't

A smartly engineered processor, but for today’s applications it’s lacking in bang per buck.

Video and almost decent gaming at fantastic prices

An old card that’s resoundingly beaten by the new 7600 GT.
