What is arguably the fastest graphics card in the world has landed in
the secret underground testing facility known as ClubOC Labs... Okay,
the secret lab is nothing more than a cluttered garage, but we really do
have an ATi Radeon X850XT Platinum Edition graphics card! As if the
X800XT wasn't enough, ATi decided to do some tweaking here and there,
increase the clock speed, and slap a monster cooling system on the card.
The result...the X850XTPE. While this is by no means a budget card, it
is the ultimate video card that you've been dreaming about ever since
you installed Doom 3 and watched in horror as your outdated video card
and computer become a slide show projector. Money may not be able to buy
you love, but it sure can buy you the best computer hardware
available... Let's take a look at the X850XTPE and see why this card
costs twice as much as second best.
