Good Points: Well this cards really great plays all the games at the high end settings .with performance and 16 pipelines top end card with the 256-bit memory interface ddr3 memory speeds.
Bad Points: No bad points.
General comments: The ATI X850 series consists of the usual suspects from ATI...the XL, Pro, XT, and XT Platinum Edition. All of the cards in the RADEON X850 series can use the CATALYST Control Center and have up to 16 pipelines for gaming performance unlike anything seen years ago. Today Legit Reviews will take a look at the Sapphire X850 XT, which happens to be the second fastest video card that ATI offers in their PCI-Express line.
With the graphics industry beginning it's migration to PCI-Express late last year, ATI's high end PCI-E X800 XT PE cards were extremely hard to find. The main reason for this was fairly simple, ATI, while trying to get the most possible out of their cards, was overly aggressive with the memory clocks on the X800 XT PE cards. By setting the memory clocks so aggressively (575MHz), ATI was unable to secure enough memory chips that met the higher clock speeds to produce an adequate number of the cards.
With more and more people jumping ship and embracing NVidia's SLI technology, ATI was forced to release a high end card to protect it's small market lead of NVidia. ATI basically kept the same design with the X850 line as their X800 line, they simply decided to make the new X850 XT and PE's more available by lowering the memory clock speeds, updating the core from the R423 that powered the X800 series, to the R480 for the X850 series, and implementing their best cooling solution yet. People hoping for a huge performance boost in the X850 over the X800 will be disappointed as the difference in performance is very small (said to be less than 10%). Curiously, while ATI's X800 XL card is built upon the .11 micron technology, the X850 line is built upon the more mature .13 micron technology.
