March
24, 2004 - If ultimate gaming performance is what you're looking
for, look no further than quality ABIT graphic cards. Built with BulletProof
Technology, ABIT graphic cards are engineered to perform. Gamers Depot
got a chance to experience this first hand with the new ABIT R9800XT video
card, and was very impressed. After running the card through a gauntlet
of benchmarks, decided to give it a whopping 4.5 out of a possible 5!
Gamers Depot takes a look at both the 9800XT GPU and its image quality:
"It's easy to see that ATI's reining champ of GPUs, the 9800XT
makes the best, overall graphics solution you can buy right now and ABIT's
brand will help bring this technology to savvy gamers who trust their
commitment to cutting-edge hardware... the TV-output supports up to 1024x786,
has a great picture quality (when using the S-Video cable) and has some
of the best 2D image quality we've seen this side of Matrox."
Stability
under stress is what ABIT is known for. Here's Gamers Depot with R9800XT
overclocking: "At the default speeds of 412MHz (GPU) and 730MHz
for the memory, this card churns out great performance - we kicked it
up a few notches using ABIT's GraphicMax2 and have posted the overclocking
results in our benchmarks. Even at the higher speeds, the card didn't
hiccup or show any real signs of strain..."
The conlcusion: "ABIT's R9800XT proves to be a good performance
champ that's priced competitively. ABIT has put together a nice little
package that helps complete its overall offering of best-of-class PC hardware."
