X3 Reunion Demo
 X3: Reunion is a space simulation game with amazing graphics. I can't vouch for the game itself, but the graphics are sweet from what the demo shows. To benchmark X3, the demo is run, "Run as Benchmark" is checked; under Graphics Settings, the resolution is selected from the dropdown menu, Fullscreen is selected; under Quality, Texture Quality and Shader Quality are both set to High; finally, under Effects, Glow is enabled and Antialiasing and Anisotropic Texture Filtering are set accordingly. The benchmark is run three times per setting and the results averaged.

on May 26, 2006 - 1:39 pm i recommend reading my 7600 GT review as well. i found out some interesting information about the pricing while i was writing that review. the main thing you need to see is the conclusion: http://www.thetechlounge.com/article/276/XFX+GeFor... 3 - Posted by

on July 10, 2006 - 9:49 am i have no idea if you'd be able to recover from a failed BIOS flash... i haven't tried it, personally. as far as the different brands of video cards go, that's all up to you. my personal opinion is i don't care that much who's sticker is on the video card, what i car about is what the GPU is under the heatsink. the deciding factor for me would be the price, the bundle, and the warranty. 5 - Posted by

on July 10, 2006 - 5:53 pm well what i think about the x1800 gto GPU is that it is has superior power (321 million trasistors and 256 bit memory interface),excellent support for HDR, AA and AF but when it comes to the 7600 gt it is cheaper, hell of a fast card, designed for specific game titles but unfortunately it only has 167 million transistors and 128 bit memory interface. i think i would choose the x1800 gto it's eyes looking for the future. now for my questions part: 1-would i be able to crossfire this 1800 gto using another 1800 gto on an intel 975 chipset based m.board 2-is this crossfire dongless or not? 3-i read that ATI will have several crrossfire layouts,2 GPUs,1GPU and 1physics card is that true?
