ATI Technologies’ highly-anticipated Radeon X1800-series proved to be a high-performance lineup, however, ATI failed to grab the crown of the indisputable leader from Nvidia Corp. with the new family and the latter’s GeForce 7800 GTX 512, which was never available in mass quantities, attracted a lot of attention to Nvidia’s products. Today ATI attempts to fight back its leadership with the Radeon X1900 XTX graphics card, which offers a promise to be the fastest consumer board in the world. Find out whether the Radeon X1900 XTX delivers on its promise in this review that includes 24 gaming benchmarks.

Total score

The Radeon X1900 XTX doesn’t offer much more performance relative to the Radeon X1800 XT and that’s natural since only the fourth game test from 3DMark03 uses really complex shaders. Both these Radeons are far inferior to the GeForce 7800 GTX 512 in this test. The GeForce 7 architecture may be viewed as somewhat out-dated in a sense, but sometimes it is an advantage, not a drawback!
Let's see the performance results within the 3DMark03 in more detail.
