XFX GeForce 7950 GT 570M Extreme Review

September 22nd 2006 | Graphics Cards

Eliminating the noise along with official overclocking means that the XFX GeForce 7950 GT 570M Extreme is not cheap. Estimated at around US$370, this compares quite unfavorably with the US$299 price of the standard clocked GeForce 7950 GT. Then again, NVIDIA did mention that we can expect the exotic versions to be priced as much as up to US$350. The bundled game title, one of the newest games available now, may help to soften the blow but with no other software applications, it may not be sufficient by itself to tilt the balance.

Against the ATI Radeon X1900 XT 256MB, the XFX does not provide value for its graphical performance. With the excessive pricing being the bigger dampener, the XFX GeForce 7950 GT 570M Extreme may only find its way to niche users having high priority for absolutely silent high-end graphics cards. In fact, this XFX model is the fastest all-silent graphics card at the moment and it is little wonder why it commands the premium.
