Good review man!

One thing i gotta say though, with you charts/graphs of performance, the color coding can be made simpler. Ill give you an example.

Just for future reviews, try flipping the colors around, jsut seems kinda easier to read.

in the Chart, it goes "Green, orange blue etc.." and on the rite side for graphics cards it is Red, yellow, purple, etc.. Just the opposite.

Good observation. I see what you mean and will incorporate that into my next write up. Def. don't want to make the charts harder to read then they need to be. :beerchug:

I'm a big "Conclusion/Recomendation" guy myself. Thought you did a real good job of differentiating between the card and company. It still amazes me how many companies just don't get the whole "customer service" thing.
Liked the specifics noted in recomending the card (if criteria met) and the point of not comparing to the 8800 class. Thanks.
