We have a MSI NX7600 GT VT2D256E with 256 MB of GDDR3 on the workbench, compared against the ATI Radeon X1800 GTO, also with 256 MB of GDDR3. Neither card will break the bank, but which is the better buy?
Perhaps you have $500 USD or more to spend on your video card. If you are like most people, however, you don’t. Enter the mainstream video card market. The video cards occupying the $120 to $250 segment are tailor-made to fit the average gamer’s budget requirements. ATI and NVIDIA are both happy to take whatever amount of money you are willing to depart with, so it is up to you to make an intelligent decision and get the most bang for your video card buck. We are here to make that decision easier for you.
