Gigabyte 5750 PCI-E @ PCStats.

The Gigabyte GV-NX57128D video card is a PCI Express x16 solution that is based on the GeForcePCX 5750 GPU. The blue-PCB card is backed up by 128MB of TSOP-II 3.6ns Samsung DRAM, and it supports S-Video out, DVI and analog connections. The card doesn't require any extra power connectors incidently.


HIS X800 XT @ bjorn3d.

I always admire companies that try to do something special with their products. HIS is one of those companies. With their IceQ line of ATI cards, they have gained a very good reputation. Today, I am looking at the king of their cards, the HIS Excalibur X800 XT IceQ II VIVO LIMITED EDITION. Yes, a long and complicated name, but somehow it does fit with this card since it is anything but simple.


Asus LGA Boards @ Hexus.

Quote

Intel's 900-series of chipsets attempt to modernise motherboard design from almost every angle. The cost of such modernisation is mediocre speed and, perhaps, limited overclockability. ASUS has done a good job in releasing a couple of boards that are packed to the rafters with useful features, from dual Gigabit LAN to integrated WiFi. Given the P5GD2 Premium's P5AD2 Alderwood-matching performance, it has to be the pick of the two. So if you absolutely want to run the latest cutting-edge kit, it's a good a choice as any. My reservations, however, lie more with Intel's chipset than with ASUS' efforts.


HIS 9550 VIVO @ Gruntville. I also reviewed this card.

Built upon the 9500 VPU, this card should also be quite able to handle those late night jaunts into the gaming world. If you’re tight on money or just can’t justify spending a months car payment on the latest and greatest for a little extra eye candy then you’re reading the right review. At just over one hundred dollars this little DX9 capable beauty just may be what you’re looking for.
