XP Maximized: Nvidia GeForce 7600 GT Review at CNET

CNET has reviewed the Nvidia GeForce 7600 GT and rate it 8 out of 10. they continue to write - "It all adds up to solid mainstream performance, especially for a sub-$200 3D card. The GeForce 7600 GT bested ATI's pricier competition, the Radeon X1800 GTO, on every Half-Life 2: Lost Coast and Doom 3 test resolution. That's impressive considering that ATI's card costs $50 more. On F.E.A.R., the most demanding game in our benchmark suite, the Radeon X1800 GTO came out ahead, at least in single-card mode. When you drop in a second GeForce 7600 GT, though, Nvidia's cards shine. They outpace ATI's Radeon X1800 GTO in CrossFire mode at every resolution on nearly every game test (the two lower-resolution Half-Life 2: Lost Coast tests excepted). That makes two GeForce 7600 GTs a formidable pairing for sheer frame rates, and at less than $400 for two of them, it's also very cost effective."

The good: Brings playable 3D gaming to the masses; easy and cost effective to double up to an SLI configuration.

The bad: ATI's Radeon cards offer more robust support for modern 3D features.
