Asus x1800xt top review

Cba - Andy · Dec 20, 2005, 09:09 PM

ASUS has been highly regarded as one of the most innovative Motherboard and Graphics card maker in the world. Today, we'll be looking at another of ASUS's impressive engineering - the ASUS EAX1800XT TOP. Being the very first card that diverges away from the standard clock speed and cooling design provided by ATi, ASUS went ahead to provide their own designed cooling solution together with higher clock speeds. While the standard reference X1800XT is clocked at 625MHz core and 1500MHz for Memory, the EAX1800XT TOP features a 695MHz Core and 1600MHz Memory. ATi has actually advised their AIB partners to boost the performance of the X1800XT cards by boosting the core and memory clock speeds to better compete against the NVIDIA's offerings. As such, not only ASUS, but other top tier card makers like Sapphire and HIS releasing their X1800XT Performance Edition and X1800XT OC Edition respectively that are clocked at 700MHz / 1.6GHz. Can this card performance be placed right at the top and overtook NVIDIA's top-end 7800GTX 512MB? Look on further....
