HIS has strapped its good looking IceQ4 cooler to the Radeon HD 4850 and we find out what it does for performance today.
As we mentioned earlier, it's been a while since we've seen anything from HIS. However, the company really hasn't lost its touch; it manages to produce a fast card that's cooled well whilst keeping to a reasonable noise level. Throw in the fact that the b...
1GB HD 4870 cards seem to be rarer than hens teeth, but today we're lucky enough to have Palit's Sonic version in hand.
While we thought that the decision not to release a 1GB model of the HD 4870 at launch was a bad idea, when you compare it to the 512MB stock model the chances are that most of the increases are being seen from the increased clocks speeds as opposed to th...

Sapphire has strapped two of our much loved HD 4850 cores onto a single PCB. Disaster or genius- - Let's check it out.
It doesn't come as any real surprise that the HD 4850 X2 is a winner. The whole HD 4800 series from ATI has been impressive and we didn't think this card was going to be any different. It's great to see that Sapphire has jumped straight onto the HD 4850 X...
The GTX 260 remains a popular high-end card and today we check out BFGs highly overclocked version; the OCX.
Over the past few months it's clear that the driver updates from NVIDIA have really kicked up the performance of the GTX 260 with it managing to beat out the HD 4870 nearly every time
It's MSIs turn to go to work on the HD 4670. We take the time to find out what they've done with it today.
The HD 4670 is an impressive card; it offers some good numbers for a mid-range card while being competitive on the price front. With the MSI HD 4670 coming clocked in at default speeds, it's no surprise that the performance of the card is extremely simila...
AMD have recently announced new cards for their low to mid-range line up. Today we look at the budget HD 4550.
While the card is yet to appear on our local shores, local pricing in the states puts the card at around the $60 mark. How's that compare against the 9500 GT which for the most part performs at twice the speed- Not great, since an extra 50% is going to li...
MSI have released a 9800 GT with their own cooling solution. Today we look to see if it can stand out from the pack.
For the most part the HD 4850 manages to outperform the 9800 GT, but it's worth noting that the 9800 GT actually comes in about 10% - 15% cheaper than the HD 4850. The other thing worth nothing is that the card not only manages to use less power, but run...
Gainward have dipped their toes into the pool that is ATI. Today we check out the HD 4850 Golden Sample.
The Gainward HD 4850 Golden Sample is an excellent card and it's good to see that the company has expanded into the ATI realm of graphics cards, especially considering just how popular they are at the moment
Today ATI have responded to the NVIDIA 9500 GT and to say we're surprised with the results would be an understatement.
It seems like we're not the only one with the HD 4670. I know there are plenty of review sites with the card, but it also seems like some people at NVIDIA have a card which lead to an interesting e-mail this morning
Palit helps mix up the VGA market with its reknowned Sonic lineup. The latest comes in the form of an overclocked 4870.
I really like this card, but before I get too much into it I have to say the whole Turbo switch thing does seem a bit pointless. Honestly, why wouldn't you want to run your card at full tilt all the time- - And considering you have to shut down to switch...
