XFX GeForce 8600GTS XXX Video Card Review

XFX and NVIDA have once again teamed up to bring us another outstanding product in the form of the 8600GTS as it has the right balance of performance versus price ratio.

Overclocking seems to be very good as well as the card comes overclocked right out of the box, which is something that will set well with the gamers’ community. Although I feel a little voltage mod and better aftermarket cooling would bring the results up even higher. I think that many people will be satisfied with this card as it offers them many features and performance ratios appealing to a broad audience of users, and at a price hovering in the $200.00 range. This is a very affordable price range, one that makes it a more acquirable product, and therefore an item that will be on the radar of many PC gamers on a budget.

Direct-X 10 is right around the corner and the 80 series chipset based cards, everything from the 8800GTX to the 8600GT, are all fully compatible with Microsoft’s latest graphic API, the highly anticipated DX10. The difference in the graphic experience for the PC user is very dynamic from the NDA pictures we have seen, definitely worth upgrading if you care about the visual aspect of your game.
