Gigabyte FX5900 PCI Express video card at Rbmods
We had a look at a Albatron PCI express card a few weeks ago and tonight we
have a even better PCI-E card from Gigabyte. They sent us their FX5900 PCI-E card
for testing. We will compare this to a Fx5900XT card and the Albatron PCX5750 card.
We will benchmark it with the latest games and test some overclocking to finally see
how good this card can perform.
Take a look at PCI-Express goodness at Rbmods.

You know Stinky, my video card is clocked just as high as yours and I'll bet it'll rape your card. I can't believe you went to Nvidia, traitor.

pretty much.. it's got a long ways to go before i'll use any linux other than knoppix (which I only tried out for a few min because it was boot from cd, and therefore didn't have to ruin anything..) but of course it didn't recognize my nic or sound card, so that was the end of that..
