I’m not a big fan of ATI All-in-Wonder cards mainly because I never really found a use for the TV Tuner, but this new X800 XT one is just awesome. It’s all black!

“As far as features go, the A-I-W X800XT is the most feature-rich multimedia video card on the market today. You get an excellent television tuner, the speed and features of one of the highest performing video cards on the market, a bundle of software that allows you to use the card, and a remote control.”

More ATI action. This time it’s on the flagship X850 XT PE.

“On average, the X800XT-PE is about 5% to 10%, give or take a couple percentage points faster than the X800XT. Assuming you are lucky enough to grab an ATI X800XT-PE, the difference will be smaller. Basically, if benchmarks are your thing, the X850XT-PE is the fastest card ATI has to offer.”
