HIS X1600 Pro IceQ Turbo review

At a price of ~120$ the X1600 Pro IceQ Turbo is a cheap way to get more speed out of a mid-range PC. Compared to a similar price NVIDIA-product like the 7600GS the HIS X1600 Pro IceQ Turbo performs well although its limited 128 MB memory hurts it when turning up the resolution and quality features.

The card would fit well into a HTPC though since it still supports both AVIVO, Dual Link DVI and has a good and silent cooler. You can add another card in Crossfire without having to buy a Crossfire master card. This means you can add a cheap X1600 Pro later instead of buying a brand new card.
