XFX GeForce 7950 GX2 570M 1GB DDR3 XXX Review

July 31st 2006 | Graphics Cards

From a technological stand point, XFX has not done anything significant different for its overclocked GeForce 7950 GX2. The vendor is well known for its overclocking models and the GeForce 7950 GX2 570M 1GB DDR3 XXX is presently the top model for its class from the company. The card itself is pretty much similar to those found from almost any of NVIDIA’s partners. It’s just that XFX has as usual overclocked it, so you’ll get the assurance of a performance boost along with warranty protection against the common problems faced by overclocking, like artifacts and heat issues.

We feel that most enthusiasts who are considering a GeForce 7950 GX2 would prefer to overclock the card themselves. At the very least, the significant price differential should force even the most inexperienced user to find out more about overclocking. However, if you are one of those who can afford it and rather leave the risk and work to the experts, then the XFX is a good choice thanks to its experience in churning out such products. It definitely beats going the SLI route with two GeForce 7900 GTX cards in terms of overall cost.
