NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT Graphics Card Review

[Dashken]

If you have always wished you could own a GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB or GeForce 8800 GT but never could afford one, well, check out the new GeForce 9600 GT.

NVIDIA’s targeting this card at those who want better performance at a more affordable price. Is it really as good as they made it out to be? Read on and find out.

Here's a quote from the review :-

"Our benchmark results show that the NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT is fast. For certain, it is more than twice as fast as the GeForce 8600 GTS, a faster-clocked version of its predecessor, the GeForce 8600 GT. In fact, it is only slightly slower than the GeForce 8800 GT in many games and actually slightly faster than that excellent card in BioShock."

Nice card and nice review still have to play with mine some yet it has the dual slot cooler. Noted in the Conclusions it doesn't support DirectX 10.1 ? I am not running Vista I assumed DirectX 10 support would include 10.1

Nope. It's DX10 only. DirectX 10.1 only comes with Vista SP1 but only ATI Radeon HD 38xx cards support DX10.1 right now.
