Product brief

Intro: This PNY Verto GeForce 7600 GS is a 512 MB, mainstream 3D card.Compared to other mainstream 3D display cards on the market, it is relatively expensive at around $225.

Noteworthy Features: Has 512 MB RAM, which is more than some similarly priced display cards.

Weaker Features: Only has a 540 MHz memory clock speed, which is considerably slower than some similarly priced display cards.For example, the ASUS EN8800GT, a 512 MB graphics card at around $200, has a 2 GHz memory clock speed.Also, this graphics card only has an AGP 8x interface, which is considerably slower than some similarly priced display cards.

Suitability: A mainstream 3D graphics card, suited for the casual gamer, and those who do not need the latest 3D card on the market.This card supports DirectX 10 technology, used in Microsoft's Windows Vista OS, and is the new technology for the upcoming generation of high-performance games.

Value: Overall, this graphics card's features are in line with its price.Also, if you were to judge mainly by the card's GPU you could expect to pay as much as 20% less for a similarly capable card.Also, mainstream 3D adapters having comparable features and memory have an average cost of about $190.

Suggestions: (1) Since this card is DVI-capable, you might want a DVI-enabled monitor or a flat-panel display to connect with it -- this will pass the digital video signal directly without converting it to analog, making for better performance.(2) For Editor's Reviews of the latest graphics cards, visit the graphics and sound section of CNET's website.

GPU Performance: This card's AGP interface means that it is not capable of keeping up with modern games, but it should still offer good performance for an existing AGP system.This card is compatible with the new rendering features of DirectX 10, which is featured in the Windows Vista operating system.

Vista Capability: This is a modern video card capable of running all the new features in Windows Vista, including the upcoming DirectX 10.

Summary: I got this, expecting something a bit different form my 128MB GeForce 6600 GT AGP. Yeah, besides a headache from the conflicting nForce drivers, I was getting worst frames per second with this card than anything. And let's face it, frames is the reason we get video cards. But overall, it was a waste of time and money. I wasted one solid day.

Summary: I chose this card as an upgraded from a PNY FX 5200 Ultra for both application needs and to play Elder Scrolls Four: Oblivion with out the Oldblivion support program. This is a great AGP card very effective and affordable in the $150 price range.
