Nvidia’s long-awaited 3D kit finally arrives and when it works, it’s every bit as good as we’d hoped it would be.

An interesting concept But performance is determined by drivers and ultimately it smacks of gimmick.

Cheap and functional, but rivals perform better.

Video and almost decent gaming at fantastic prices

It may be affordable, but we’d rather spend a little more to guarantee some genuine gaming ability

A real bargain. If you don’t need to capture video, its gaming performance makes it a great choice.

Silent, powerful and cheap: the ideal card for media centres.

It’s NVIDIA’s flagship, but still trails behind the top ATI cards.

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

A cheap mid-range card but with budget performance.

Good value — until you compare it to the superior 7600 GS.

More bang-per-buck than the 7300s, but the 6600 shows its age.

Lack of power and features make it one to avoid, despite the price.

Poor 3D performance but a good choice for HD video playback.

Not bad value for an older card, but it’s too noisy.

The 7800 GT is hard to find and is being usurped by the 7900 GT.

Too expensive for the performance on offer.

Yet another older GPU that’s eclipsed by the 7600 GT.

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

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