ReviewsNvidia GeForce 8800 GTX (768MB)
Reviewed on November 8, 2006 This one is easy. Nvidia's GeForce 8800 GTX not only beats ATI to market with its next-gen 3D graphics hardware, it also eliminates ATI's image-quality advantage in current-generation titles. Throw in its sheer horsepower, and Nvidia gives the high-end enthusiast every reason to make this purchase. -
ReviewsATI Radeon HD 2600 XT
Reviewed on August 2, 2007 If you're looking to build a home theater PC, we recommend ATI's Radeon HD 2600 XT as the midrange card to use, thanks to its nearly perfect HD video image and its no-fuss installation. But for 3D gaming, you'd be much better off looking for a good deal on a faster, older graphics card. -
ReviewsXFX GeForce 8800 GTS (320MB, GDDR3)
Reviewed on February 12, 2007 No other 3D graphics card comes close to this bang for the buck, making the 320MB XFX GeForce 8800 GTS mostly an easy decision if you need a midrange upgrade. Nvidia still has to polish off its Vista software, and the sooner-or-later arrival of competing cards muddies the waters a bit, but if you need a midprice graphics card today, this should be your pick. -
ReviewsATI Radeon X1950 XTX (512MB)
Reviewed on August 23, 2006 ATI's Radeon X1950 XTX is the fastest single-chip 3D card that you can buy. Unfortunately, with Windows Vista and its accompanying gaming technology, it's going to become obsolete in just five months. ATI adjusted the price of the Radeon X1950 XTX accordingly, but at $450, it's still not an insignificant purchase. We recommend it only if money is no object. -
ReviewsNvidia GeForce 7950 GX2
Reviewed on June 5, 2006 Nvidia's GeForce 7950 GX2 should have been an Editors' Choice contender. It brings two graphics processors to a single slot, costs half as much as similarly fast setups, and lays the groundwork for do-it-yourself Quad SLI. But the gap between this chip generation and the next is too close, so we recommend you pass on the 7950 GX2. -

ReviewsGateway FX530XT (Windows Vista)
Reviewed on February 15, 2007 We liked this system when we covered its Windows XP-based debut back in November. The big news here is that Gateway has added an option for Windows Vista. Unfortunately, it's an awkward time for high-end gaming PCs to use Microsoft's new operating system, and Gateway hasn't adjusted well. We'd stick with the older model. -
ReviewsATI Radeon X300 SE (128MB HyperMemory)
Reviewed on June 9, 2005 ATI's Radeon X300 SE will satisfy users looking for a good basic 2D video card, but spend a few more bucks if 3D is important to you. -
