Graphics card manufacturers’ obsession with multi-GPU boards continues this month. The Asus HD 3850 X2 brings to market the novel formula of two ATi Radeon 3850 GPUs on one card.

As with all the GeForce3 Ti cards the ASUS V8200 T2 Deluxe features two new additions to the NVIDIA nfiniteFX engine...

A useful card for more relaxed gaming, and a quiet cooler to boot.

An exciting glimpse at future performance, but by the time games appear to make them worth buying, the price will have plummeted.

Nvidia's first HDMI graphics card, complete with HDCP compatibility and decent performance.

A potentially stunning card -- but don't buy one just yet.

We love hardware. As users ourselves we feel your pangs of wanting the newest, fastest rig and components. Unfortunately it's hard to justify the cost of bleeding-edge hardware at the best of times - more so with the cost of single graphics cards at times exceeding the $1000 price barrier. This is as much as some users would spend on a total system upgrade.

With the X800's and 6800's hogging limelight, a new battle has begun for affordable, mid-performance cards -- the 6600GT's versus the X700's -- and ASUS has stepped up to the plate with its Extreme AX700Pro.

The X800XT PE is ATI's flagship technology, and its main change over the standard X800 XT is a core frequency increase from 500MHz to 520MHz, and a memory increase from 500MHz to 560MHz. Consequently, it performs better than the standard X800 XT's, topping all the benchmarks and achieving a phenomenal 26588 marks in 3DMark01 in 1024 x 768.
