The Zotac 8600GT Zone Edition 256MB is a particular video card: the passive cooling system, the two DVI connections and the support to HDTV and HDCP make this card the ideal one for silent and multimedia-oriented systems. Besides, we tested this video card also with games, and the results are satisfying, according to the price.

Ultimately, the buying decision is going to depend on your needs because there is no clear must buy in the midrange at the moment. Previous-generation DirectX 9 cards outperform their replacements, but the new generation of cards have DX10 support and better HD video capabilities. I guess if you're after a mainstream graphics card with a good set of home theatre features and respectable performance in both DirectX 9 and DirectX 10 games, Zotac's card looks to be a better purchase than the Radeon HD 2600 XT, but it's a bit expensive for our tastes at the moment. You could say Zotac's GeForce 8600 GT ZONE Edition is a jack of all trades, master of none at its current price.

Zotac's new GeForce 8600 GT ZONE Edition is running without any form of active cooling. It also has an audio input which allows you to feed external audio into the HDMI stream which is output via DVI plus an adapter, which is included of course. For a price of $129, or about $10 over a regular 8600 GT you will get several added benefits for very little extra cost.
