Recently Nvidia presented us with their most up-to-date graphics solutions meant to capture the affordable high-end gaming arena, which was previously dominated by its own GeForce 7900GT as well ATI-based boards selling in the $250 to $300 range.

The new 7900GS and 7950GT products are available already from a number of manufacturers and retailers, selling for approximantely $220 and $300, respectively. This puts the GeForce 7950GT as the logical replacement for the 7900GT, as it costs just a fraction more yet should deliver better performance.

The question to be asked now is how will this new GeForce 7950GT compare to ATI's Radeon X1900XT? On paper it would seem to be anyone's guess, yet that is exactly what we are here to find out today.

Cheap bastards used a good Zalman HSF but didn't put the Zalman BGA ramsinks on the VRAM chips. Morons. How do they expect the Ramchips to keep cool if there's no heatsinks touching them?

Really nice card, but I would still feel like they tricked me if buying one since the DirectX10 cards are just about to be shipped. Can't really figure out why they let this one out of the bag?

The graphics card industry is the fastest game of one-upmanship around. If one company doesn't outpace the other with a new top of the line card, then they could be pegged as the second tier manufacturer. The people that buy this kind of hardware know its probably not the best investment, but its out now and thats good enough. This is not a mass market item. Its called a flagship for a reason, marketting.
