XFX GeForce 6600 DDR2 & MSI Radeon X1300 Pro Review

MSI’s Radeon X1300 Pro is not a bad video card by any stretch of the imagination, which is great for the consumer - competition drives prices down. It’s amazing to think that you can pick up something that performs as well as a Radeon 9700 for less than £80 these days. The XFX GeForce 6600 DDR2 has just bested it by a considerable margin at the same price point.

For a little over £80, the XFX GeForce 6600 DDR2 seems to be a fantastic buy. The fact that XFX has decided to drop its standard GeForce 6600 DDR2 in favour of an Extreme XXX Edition is even better for the consumer. They’re selling a video card that will deliver even more gaming performance than we’ve shown in this review - the additional cost is negligible, as the standard XFX GeForce 6600 DDR2 was selling at £76.25 before XFX decided to discontinue it in favour of the faster model. Superb.
