ATI X1900 CrossFire Review

So a clear recommendation for the X1900 CrossFire then? Well, it’s definitely faster than NVIDIA’s best, and it’s cheaper. However, despite the scores, it’s hard to recommend unreservedly for a number of reasons.

Firstly, you can’t buy a CrossFire card today. Secondly, as for investing in a single card in the mean-time you have to bear in mind that HDCP isn’t enabled on this current crop of cards, so you might not be able to watch your HD-DVD or Blu-ray movies with it. Thirdly, there’s the small issue of noise.

Of course, if you’re desperate to part with the best part of £500 and gain a graphics card in the process, then today, an ATI X1900 XTX would definitely be the best way to do it, safe in the knowledge that you’ve got the fastest graphics card on the planet – for now.
