Palit is a relative newcomer to the GPU market in North America, but we are sure to see more of them as months pass. Our first look at a Palit card is courtesy of the 8600GT "Super+1GB". Though equipped with loads of memory, we found that it added little benefit over our 256MB competitor.

I'm sure a lot of you have never head of Palit before. Before we were approached by them we had never heard of them either. Palit is not a new company, but they have done business almost entirely overseas. Now they are offering their products here in the United States. They offer both AMD ATI video cards as well as Nvidia-based cards. They were nice enough to send us over their GeForce 8600GT Super+1GB PCI-Express card, let's take a look...

Palit do a good job of impressing us here; they seem to be consistently one of the cheapest partners on the market but it doesn't seem to come at the cost of specs or build quality. Going into the arena with our Palit 8800GT Sonic is a stock clocked 8800GT from ASUS and the older HD 2900 XT from MSI which is also stock clocked.

In a war that has spanned over decades which has caused tension between the enthusiast and the noob, we all ask what's better; more memory or more speed. Palit continue to expand the "Super" and "Sonic" line up with each new release from AMD. The latest participants to the epic battle is the HD 2600 XT, coming standard with 256MB of GDDR3 memory Palit have taken it upon themselves to offer three models. There's the standard model which we don't really care about, because everyone knows that standard is boring. We then have the Sonic which is an overclocked 256MB GDDR3 card, and in the other corner we have the Super which comes in at stock clocks but carries with it 512MB of GDDR3 memory.

What we intend to find out today is whether or not these cards are worth looking at. Can the HD 2600 series from AMD battle against the 8500 and 8600 series from Nvidia? While we focus on that we also see what Palit have done with these particular models.

OK! We are being a little harsh and a little inaccurate but let's have a look at what exactly the Radeon X1950GT is before we continue to criticize. It's a about the same price as a regular nVidia GeForce 7900GS 256MB but cheaper than the Radeon X1950PRO with 256MB and 512MB of memory. It makes it somewhat of a questionable release since it's only marginally cheaper than the 256MB PRO. Let's get into and find out what the new Radeon X1950GT from the folks at Palit has to offer against its competitors and if it's actually worth buying or if it's just an excuse for AMD and ATI to kill over supply problems of the RV570 chip.

They shouldn't have changed the name anyway, since it is an 8800GTS with just less memory. Fortunately they didn't do something stupid like call it the "8850GT" which does nothing but cause panic to everyone who owns a new graphics card. Palit have come to the party today and shown us the 320MB version of the 8800GTS - we're going to have a quick look at it and the package before we gets stuck into what really matters, and of course what we really want to know. Are we sacrificing much by loosing 320MB of memory?

NVIDIA's new G80 GPU is the first to implement DirectX 10 support and Shader Model 4.0. Palit is one of NVIDIA's board partners who is selling the GeForce 8800 GTX. The card comes with 768 MB of video memory and can will run whatever you throw at it at highest resolutions with maximized settings. We test the card against the ATI Radeon X1950 XTX, X1900 Crossfire and the Geforce 7900 GTX.

Not only does the Palit 7900GT Sonic 512Mb look excellent with its red PCB and DVI ports it also has a more powerful cooler and double the memory when compared to a regular 7900GT. When we add this extra 256Mb to the enhanced core speed of 550Mhz the result is the best performing 7900GT we have tested in our labs to date.

The Blitz continues, with the next overclocked graphics card from Palit in our labs today. Based on the increasingly popular GeForce 6800 GS GPU, the Palit 6800GS Blitz follows the same approach as its 7800 GT cousin by using faster memory chips to achieve higher clock speeds...

Palit boldly announces its intention to speed with a blazing fast GeForce 7800 GT that features faster memory chips and overclocked frequencies. Appropriately dubbed the Palit 7800GT Blitz, this card has the prerequisites to match a GeForce 7800 GTX 256MB and that's what it did in our labs...

Overall, the excellent overclocked performance of the Palit Radeon X550V+ puts it above the reference version and given a choice, we would probably choose it over its other overclocked competitor that we compared, the GeCube Radeon X550 256MB, for the Palit operates even cooler. Pegged with a suggested retail price of US$73, the Palit Radeon X550V+ is affordable enough to satisfy the bargain hunters. If you're on the lookout for such a budget card, we'll recommend that you get it soon, as this class of cards may not be in the market for too long...
