Title: HIS' X800 IceQIIs Cometh
Post by: TeaLeaf on July 24, 2004, 11:32:49 AM
In some pre-BBQ reading I came across this new review comparing the X800 range from HIS (you'll remember their hugely successful and very overclockable 9800 cards) with the nVidia 6800 range.

HIS have put all their chips in the one basket by only making ATI-based graphics cards, so one would hope they can do a better than average job through specialisation.  I'm not sure if I would want all the eggs in the same basket at this point of the ATI v nVidia graphics battle!

To find out how HIS did, click here (http://graphics.tomshardware.com/graphic/20040723/index.html).

Enjoy!

Seems to be be doing pretty well. Sometimes it wins sometimes the 6800s but a good card. Notice it is a 2 slot job due to the cooling  <_<
