Next generation gaming has arrived! Well the hardware's here at least. Unless you've been living in PC World for the last few weeks, you're probably well aware that NVIDIA has launched the first line of direct x10 graphics cards on the market. Based around the G80 GPU, the current king and fastest card on the planet goes to the top of the range 8800GTX GeForce line. With tremendous pixel pushing prowess and power guzzling requirements (a whopping 850w PSU is required for SLI), it's the american muscle car of the graphics world. ASUS have taken the reference design from NVIDIA and packaged it up in an exclusive EN8800GTX package and it's really rather good. Are you ready to drool? Let's go. |

If you need a graphics card for some performance gaming, the HIS X1800 series of graphics cards offers plenty of bang for very little of the green stuff. HIS Digital have corner ed a niche for themselves by offering quality cards with fantastic cooling systems. The IceQ cooling system replaces the stock cooler found on reference designs and offers clever design features to help keep noise down and hot air outside your case. The question is, are HIS cards worth the price premium, alebit a small one, over stock reference models...

Another day, another graphics card upgrade. We can't help wondering why
people buy a £400 graphics card
to play a £30 game that lasts for a little under 10 hours. That's £43 a
hour. Crazy eh. You could have a wild weekend with enough debauchery to
leave you recounting tales to your mates down the local for the next
six months. Go on, treat your joystick and head down to
Spearmint Rhino's to gawp at the babes while they gyrate round your lap
rubbing baby oil into your trousers. Best thing is you'd still have
enough change to buy the
latest Sugar Babes cd to throw at your neighbours cat. Or you could
just spend £400 on a graphics card that will be obsolete in a few
months time.
Decisions, decisions. Should you spend the money on the latest hardware powerhouse from the graphic card stables of ASUS or stuff it down some nubile blondes knickers as she manoveurs around your manhood. It's a big dilemma for every hardware enthusiast but don't worry, this review might just help you decide. Read on.
