ASUS AX800Pro X800 Pro Graphics Card Review!

Dashken · 24th Nov 2004, 09:43 PM

ASUS is a relatively new ATI board partner. They only hopped onto the ATI bandwagon with the debut of the ASUS Radeon 9800 Pro range of cards. Despite their late entry into the ATI graphics card market, ASUS' motherboard manufacturing expertise has stood them in good stead. Their graphics card line is as impressive as their motherboards.

With the release of the new ATI R420 GPU, it's only natural for ASUS to release their new Radeon X800 Pro and X800 XT graphics cards. In this review, Chai is going to take a look at the AGP version of the ASUS AX800 X800 Pro graphics card. Let's see if it is as good as they say it is!

Does it really matter who you get your card from? Like is an ATi branded one better than an ASUS one or are they all the same?

Well, I did read it .. and still I'll go for my new AX800XT PE on Saturday.

PS: Someone interested in a RX9800pro @ XT with VGASilencer?
