Radeon 9800 Pro 128: Is it worth the upgrade?

byGr8ful Apr 8, 2004
41 Helpfuls 42 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Fast frame rate. 128MB DDR. Compares well with NVIDIA 5900FX.
Cons Somewhat expensive but you get what you pay for.
Recommended it? Yes

"Hooray! It's here!" Finally after 10 days and $204.79, my new Radeon 9800 Pro 128 video card finally arrived. Now all I had to do was install it and explain to my wife why this card was worth two hundred bucks. The first part was easier than the second since my wife knows little to nothing about...

It's Getting Hot In Here: Upgrades, PCIx, and Shifting Video Cards

byzero_ May 15, 2004
24 Helpfuls 25 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Fast, fast, fast, and with the latest price drop, cheap!
Cons Power hungry - Requires a good motherboard and power supply.
Recommended it? Yes

Cripes, this review got old. PCI-E is here and going strong, having turned into a better value for the money, performancewise, than AGP is anymore. And they settled on calling it "PCI-E" instead of "PCI-X" so as to minimize confusion with the old and seldom-used server board standard of the same... Read full review »

ATI RADEON X1800 XL: Supersized graphics power?

bytheuerkorn Nov 23, 2005
35 Helpfuls 36 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Shader 3.0 support, Crossfire ready, reasonable power consumption, reasonable price, good...
Cons Not SLI compatible, still expensive, long card, relatively low OpenGL performance
Recommended it? Yes

In light of the revised nVidia 7800 GTX 512, ATI's Radeon X1800 XL may appear a little handicapped, and by raw numbers that's even true. However, considering money, the lofty 7800 GTX and ATI's response, the Radeon x1800 XT, are in a completely different league with additional $150 to $300 that has... Read full review »

horrible

bynvg70 Feb 9, 2006
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros crossfire support(if you can find the right mo-bo. Pci-express x16.
Cons ran games horribly(literally worse than a geforce 6600 gt).
Recommended it? No

Bought as a replacement for a x700 that wasn't living up to standards. Ran very low framerates and unlike what Ati says AVIVO doesn't improve DVD quality, drivers are very very slow, and the GPU failed after 30 days. Ati was no help, and I never heard back from them. Pitched it and went with the... Read full review »
