Sapphire Radeon X850XT Platinum Edition AGP Review

Today we’re looking at Sapphire’s X850XT PE, or Platinum Edition. Not only that, but we’ll be testing it in the AGP format since many of our readers have perfectly serviceable AGP motherboards and haven’t felt the dire need to move on to PCI-Express as yet. So kick up your heels and relax as we take a tour of the latest and greatest offering from ATI in the form of the X850XT and we’ll see how it compares to its smaller brother, the X800XT!

Bottom line… If you’re happy with your AGP based rig but still want to get a top-end video card, then let me say up front that you’ve found your board. For those with AGP, this is as good as it gets and with recent price cuts it won’t completely break the bank.
