XFX has built its reputation on manufacturing unique and highly overclocked video cards. Well now, they have focused their expertise on the Geforce 8600 series. Bit-Tech has posted a review of the XFX GeForce 8600 GT XXX Edition.

Let’s see what they had to say:

“Despite the lack of HDCP support in the current version, XFX’s GeForce 8600 GT XXX Edition is probably one of the best bang for buck mid-range DirectX 10 graphics cards out there. From as little as £90 including VAT, the card delivers performance that is not too far off Nvidia’s GeForce 8600 GTS and, with a bit of overclocking, you can achieve practically the same performance as the 8600 GTS.”


If you are looking for an affordable Nvidia gaming card, this is a solid choice. It is priced well, performs much better than a standard 8600GT, and with a little overclocking, it can compete with the pricier 8600GTS.
