XFX 7900GS videocard review

piotke · 17th September 2006, 21:31

There are people on this planet that will spend over $1000 dollar on a graphics subsystem. But there are far more people around that just want to spend about $200-250 on an excellent, allround graphics card. If you fit in the last category, The XFX 7900GS might very well be the card you're looking for...

Thanks guys.

I enjoyed testing this card, as I always like products that are able to run a bit above their spec

Question remains whether you go for a 7900GT or this card, but I can tell you that without vmods the XFX is faster. It's all a question of how far you're willing to go...

My card shows artifacts after a couple weeks of use at default speed

No time to play any game since last summer.
