Gigabyte 8600GTS 256MB Slient Pipe 3 Review

Mon 2007-08-13 - Posted by Martin "Langaleer" Finbow

Whether or not you are looking to purchase a low-end, mid-range or high-end graphics card, the choices are endless. It certainly doesn't help when there are five-hundred different versions of a card available. Thanks to this, it's smart to read around to find out which card suits you best, since you could easily purchase a card that doesn't meet your expectations, or vice versa, paying more for a card that has power you will never touch.

TechGage have reviewed the Gigabyte 8600GTS Silent Pipe 3, the mid range gpu from the nVIDIA 8x00 series. It will certainly be silent but how is the performance? Lets see what they had to say:

“Building a silent PC or on the look-out for a quality mid-range graphics card offering? Gigabyte's 8600GTS includes the best of both worlds. In addition to including a passive cooler, a free copy of Supreme Commander can be found here also. Of course the important question is: Does the overall performance warrant your attention?”
