Part of the irony of this, though, is because the PowerColor X1550 is an entry-level card, it very rarely actually makes full use of the 512MB of dedicated graphics memory: the rest of the card can't exactly keep up. If you're hoping to achieve the same kinds of results as cards that cost three or four times the asking price of the $99 X1550, you're going to be sorely disappointed. By contrast, if you're a light gamer or you're willing to run your first-person shooters and other graphic intense games at less than their maximum capable resolutions and frame rates, the PowerColor X1550 will certainly save you a few bucks while still being able to do an adequate, budget-minded job.

The emergence of Windows Vista on the 31st of January this year proved to change the PC industry by an amount greater than any prior versions of Windows from Microsoft. Although many current computers will be able to run the OS without issues, older computers or more budget oriented systems utilizing integrated graphics may not run Aero as well as systems with higher performance and dedicated graphics. How will users looking for upgrade in regards to improving the unique Vista graphics experience, but not interested in playing the latest 3D games, upgrade their computers? Cost is the primary factor here -- and today we will take a close look at PowerColor's offer of a budget friendly ATI Radeon X1550 based graphics card.
