Reg Hardware takes a close look at the PowerColor X1900 XT 512MB (£310), a PCI Express graphics card that features the ATI X1900 XT GPU, 625MHz clock speed, 1450MHz memory speed, and 512MB memory.
The PowerColor X1900XT is a very fast card for the money and it's a much more affordable option than the company's own X1900 XTX which doesn't offer a huge amount of extra performance considering the price difference. The downside is the fan noise - particularly when there are cards out there that perform as well but do so much more quietly. [Reg Hardware]
This card is definitely targeted for the gamer crowd. The Nvidia counterpart would be graphics cards based on the GeForce 7900 GTX. If you don't mind the extra expense, you can further upgrade the card with a more quiet cooling system.
