ATi's new X800 lineup competes very well against nVIDIA's GeForce 6600/GT series. These two Geforce GPUs are currently some of the best mid-level videocards out there.

The ATI 'R430' core is built on the 0.11 micron manufacturing process, and contains some 160 million transistors. The PowerColor X800 GTO core speed is 400MHz and this version features 128MB DDR memory running along at 350MHz...

It has VIVO functionality and a PCI-e power connector - these are two important additions that almost no other X800 GTO's currently offer. It's also possible that some R423/R480 cores are bios moddable to 16 pipes, and if you are one of the lucky ones to manage this, the PCI-e power connector will no doubt be a great addition to this card. The £130 asking price makes this one of the buzz cards of the moment...
