HIS Radeon X800XL Review @ OCC

“If you’re going to do a price/performance comparison this card is going to come out on top every time. Quite a bit less expensive and yet still giving out excellent performance. By overclocking this card, you can reach equivalent frame rates of the X850XT at stock speeds, and all for no extra money. You just can’t ask for more than that. Though I have yet to handle an nVidia based 6800GT, this cards direct competitor, I’d have to say that this card is truly going to be the card to beat in it’s price range.”

This is without a doubt the best video card for the price. I own a lower end X800 and it’s already rockin steadily in CS:S and WoW. Imagine what 4 extra pipes will do. We’ll have our review of the X800 XL shortly.

Centon is quietly entering the enthusiast market. While it’s not available everywhere (only place available seems to be through their website), it does pack a good deal of performance.
