HIS Excalibur 9550 VIVO iFan Edition Review

September 13th 2004 | Graphics Cards

Recently, everyone’s attention has been directed at the wave of reviews about the X800’s and the 6800’s. However, for people who can’t afford to pay an arm and a leg but still want great multimedia use and acceptable performance that can handle today’s high end games, such as Far Cry and Doom 3, then the HIS 9550 Excalibur Vivo is the right choice for you.

The HIS Excalibur 9550 Vivo edition is directed to consumers who are not hardcore gamers but still want acceptable gaming performance and Video-In Video-Out use. The 9550 is a DX9 capable card and can hold its own when running games. With a price estimated around $100 CAD, you can’t go wrong. Also, speaking of gaming, this card is amazing when it comes to overclocking – considering the fact that this card is only cooled with the HIS iFan and no ram sinks.

. . .Let’s just sum up everything: for the money you’re paying and for the features you’re getting, it’s a great bargain – not to mention the overclocking ability with this card. This card surprised us in many ways and HIS & ATI should be very proud to have engineered and designed such a card.
