Gigabyte 8N-SLI Royal and HIS Radeon X1900 CrossFire

When Quad SLI makes its market debut, this motherboard will shine, but for now we need a mainstream board to handle the more sane hardware enthusiasts out there and this is it.

With the launch of the Radeon X1900XT and X1900XTX last month, CrossFire cards of this new Radeon series have already popped up at a few places but aren’t in full swing as most people would like. Today thanks to our friends over at HIS in Hong Kong we have got ourselves an X1900 master card along with an X1900XTX as a slave card.

Special thanks to our sponsors at www.directron.com!

nForce4 SLI vs SLI X16

Besides Quake4, we really do not see the X16 posting higher results in anything else. In fact, Serious Sam 2 and Call of Duty 2 consistently showed the older nForce4 SLI performaing better in most of the benchmarks.

XFX 7800GS AGP Extreme Edition

One thing that the card has going for it is the availability. The 6800 Ultra and 6800GT are barely available today in the market, being at their end-of-life cycle. Overall, it seems the new king of AGP has arrived and XFX has a solid product here.

Of course not--you build a perfectly capable mid-range system with a quality mid-range video card that is more than able to power through your favorite shooters. Enter the subject of today's review, the EVGA GeForce 6800GS.

However this new card technology means that most users will need to upgrade their motherboard to be able to use PCIe and as a result typically the CPU, and RAM as well.

So the answer was for cards to be produced with the AGP format, this allows user to afford an upgrade without needing to overhaul their system.

So today I'm going to ignore the lot of you and I'm going to call out to the power gamer, the financially comfortable and those who just get a buzz from insanely fast hardware.

Each of these cards costs around £400, which is quite a large amount of money to spend on a graphics card. Remember that an Xbox 360 contains the equivalent generation of ATI graphics hardware but the full version will only cost you £279. And you don’t just get graphics hardware for that – you’re also getting a progressive scan capable DVD player, with remote, a wireless controller, a component cable and a 20GB hard disk drive.
