“The Gigabyte GV-NX57128D video card is a PCI Express x16 solution that is based on the GeForcePCX 5750 GPU. The blue-PCB card is backed up by 128MB of TSOP-II 3.6ns Samsung DRAM, and it supports S-Video out, DVI and analog connections. The card doesn’t require any extra power connectors incidently.”
Enermax ATX Sea Hawk CS-656TA Case
3dXtreme :: Thursday, August 05, 2004
“The Sea Hawk has many of the features we are used to seeing on Cases priced much higher. The integrated fan bus controller just adds to the allure with this case, purchasing a fan controller separately would cost the user at least another $25. Also consider the other features we’ve seen – side panel window, backlit temperature LCD and the finish and it’s easy to see why the Enermax Sea Hawk impressed us. If you’re in the market for a new case and looking for something affordable the Sea Hawk may be just what you have been looking for!”

Sapphire Toxic X800 PRO VIVO Review
Beyond3D :: Tuesday, August 31, 2004
“Beyond the cooling system, and the obvious PCB colour change, the rest of the board appears to adhere to the ATI reference design. Removing the heatsink from the board reveals Samsung 1.6ns GDDR3 RAM, which should be capable of a maximum operating speed of 600MHz, which well beyond the rates that even the “APE” overclocking runs it at.”
PowerColor Radeon 9250 Videocard Review
PCStats :: Tuesday, August 31, 2004
“We usually focus on higher end parts here at PCStats.com, but in ths review we’ll be evaluating the little PowerColor ATI Radeon 9250 videocard. The Powercolor Radeon 9250 retails for just $62 CDN ($47 US), and does not come with much else other than a driver CD, CyberLink DVD software suite, a S-Video-to-composite converter, composite-to-composite cable and a half height mounting bracket great. For $47USD, that’s not bad!”
HIS Excalibur X600XT VIVO Limited Edition
ViperLair :: Tuesday, August 31, 2004
“Gaming performance is mid range which is what the card is designed for. Modern games will run at about 1024×768 very happily with mild AA and AF applied. Older games will have no trouble, but the latest games such as FarCry and Doom III will push the card to its limits. If you are serious about playing either of those two then you would be better served by looking at a higher specification card.”
PowerColor Radeon 9250 Review @ FastLaneHW.com
FastLaneHW :: Sunday, August 29, 2004
Description: While I recommend spending at least $150 or $200 on a video card if you want to really get into games, what about those of us who aren’t into the gaming scene as much, and whose gaming endeavors may be limited to playing the occasional round of UT or Quake 3? What if you don’t even care about games, and just want a video card with a few nice features for a cheap price? Why should those people spend $150-200 on a video card? That’s why today we’re looking at ATi’s Radeon 9250, on a board made by our friends at PowerColor.

ViperLair :: Tuesday, August 24, 2004
“With the ability to output to two monitors, as well as TVs via S-Video, this wouldn’t be a bad choice for media professionals who normally rely on these features. Otherwise, those of you serious about gaming, you’re better off looking towards a VPU/GPU more suited for the task of playing over 1024×768.”
HIS Excalibur AIW 9600
Bjorn3D :: Tuesday, August 24, 2004
“A couple of weeks ago I reviewed the HIS Excalibur AIW 9600XT TURBO, a All In Wonder card based on the Radeon 9600XT with both FM and TV and good performance. But what if you don’t need the speed and want an AIW-card that not only is cheaper but also quieter and which would fit perfectly into a SFF system? HIS has the answer for you with their HIS Excalibur AIW 9600, the card I am reviewing today.”

MSI GeForce 6800 Reviewed
VR-Zone :: Tuesday, August 24, 2004
“Overclocking the MSI GeForce 6800 yielded some very interesting results. From a stock clock speed of 325MHz and stock memory speed of 700MHz, we were able to overclock the card to a clock speed of 376MHz and memory speed of 798MHz. This is a 51MHz increase in core speed and 98MHz in memory speed. By all accounts this is a very good overclock considering the card’s single-slot design and relatively quiet operation.”
ATI Catalyst 4.8 and 4.9 BETA Doom 3 Performance Analysis
TweakTown :: Tuesday, August 24, 2004
“Last week ATI caused a stir in the enthusiast community by releasing a “Doom 3 Hotfix” driver labeled 4.9 BETA for users of Radeon graphics cards which promised increased OpenGL performance for the new game. They also released their official Catalyst 4.8 drivers which promise even more performance increases. Follow Shane as we benchmark all the new drivers and see all the results for yourself.”
GeForce 6800 GT PCI Express Review
Beyond3D :: Tuesday, August 24, 2004
“NVIDIA’s PCX line of boards, which featured AGP GeForce FX’s bridged with the HSI chip, all had very different layouts from their standard AGP counterparts, which was required due to the discrete HSI chip on the board which resulted in the core and memory needed to be shifted around the board. With the high memory speeds and 256-bit bus of GeForce 6800, board space and positioning is at a premium as the trace paths and lengths are fairly critical, hence a discrete HSI solution may have been difficult to implement.”
Albatron Trinity PC5900 PCI Express Videocard Review
PCStats :: Saturday, August 21, 2004
“With high end PCI Express videocards in short supply, those of you looking for the best performance may want to cast an eye towards nVIDIA’s GeForcePCX 5900 series. The videocard in question is the Albatron Trinity PC5900, which is obviously based on the GeForcePCX 5900 GPU. The Trinity PC5900 videocard is powered with 128MB of DDR RAM, and supports both analog and DVI monitors.”
MSI PCX 5750 Reviewed @ VR-Zone Hardware
VR-Zone :: Friday, August 20, 2004
“The MSI PCX 5750 does have two things going for it: a great bundle and good overclockability. However, those two features are nice, but not nice enough to warrant you to buy this graphics card. Bottom line is that if you are going to be gaming on your new PCI Express system, any card based on the PCX 5750 is not what you should buy.”
MSI RX600XT-TD128 PCI Express VIdeocard Review
PCStats :: Friday, August 20, 2004
“The MSI RX600XT-TD128 flew through all the benchmarks we ran, and performed quite well at 1024×768. Higher resolutions might be out of the question depending on the application, but if you find the card a bit slow, simply overclock it. Our particular card was able to hit a very respectable 610 MHz core, and 438 MHz memory. Despite the added stress, the MSI RX600XT-TD128 is completely silent during operation, and you will not hear it when it’s installed into a case.”
HIS Excalibur X800 Pro IceQ II @ Viper Lair
ViperLair :: Friday, August 20, 2004
“This card is fast, very fast. With only four high end cards to choose from (X800 Pro, XT, 6800GT, Ultra) this card should be on your very short list. With stock overclocking that for sure can’t be beat, this is surely a winner.”

“Mike has posted a comprehensive look at the brand new Sapphire Radeon X800 XT graphics card. After providing a complete guided tour of the product, he compares performance against an older Radeon 9800 Pro in a bunch of benchmarking applications including Doom 3 to decide if it is worth your time upgrading to ATI’s latest flagship VPU product.”

Albatron GeForce PCX 5750 Reviewed
VR-Zone :: Thursday, August 05, 2004
“Going into this review, I really did not know what to expect when overclocking the Albatron PCX 5750. The GeForce FX 5700 Ultra gave us good results when overclocked, but nothing spectacular. The same can be said of the Albatron PCX 5750. From a core speed of 425MHz and memory speed of 500MHz, we were able to overclock the core 85MHz and memory 115MHz. These were good overclocks by all accounts, and we’ll be using our overclocked speeds to test against stock frequencies and the ATI Radeon X600 XT.”

Bjorn3D :: Thursday, August 05, 2004
“I always admire companies that try to do something special with their products. HIS is one of those companies. With their IceQ line of ATI cards, they have gained a very good reputation. Today, I am looking at the king of their cards, the HIS Excalibur X800 XT IceQ II VIVO LIMITED EDITION. Yes, a long and complicated name, but somehow it does fit with this card since it is anything but simple.”
