XFX 7600GS XT SLI Video Card

Monday, March 27th, 2006 | News, Video Card Reviews

XFX have released almost every single Nvidia based video card under their branding. Their focus is exclusively on Nvidia, and for this reason you will find a great deal of the new Nvidia releases from them. XFX is based in Korea and is a big manufacturer in the Asian market.

Motherboards.org takes a look at this card from XFX and puts it through its paces. It doesn’t incorporate active cooling and relies on only a heat sink to meet its cooling needs. Alright for cooling but most beneficial for a quiet computer without the fan blowing.

The size of the card is smaller than the other high class offerings from XFX like the 7800 and 7900 series cards which take up a massive amount of space inside any computer case.

The massive array of improvements that have been made to cards have been applied to this model, meaning that it can handle new games, although not with as much ease as its bigger brothers.

Although it performs alright in games it will not suit your needs if you need to run them at high resolutions and especially with all the extra setting turned on.

At a price much cheaper than a 7900GT it would make sense for those who don’t want to break the bank to get a good card, but don’t want to sacrifice too much for gaming on a computer that is probably designed to do more than just play games.
