HIS' bargain Radeon HD 2900 XT?

[Tarinder]

It seems good on paper and should be in stock soon.

Find out what I'm bleating on about in this headline-cum-preview.

i'm slightly disappointed at some of the results of the hd2900xt, but maybe better drivers will improve things.

I realise that it is now competing (and fairly well) against the 8800gts (320+640mb) at this price level, but it is supposed to be AMD/ATi's uber card and it dosn't really compare to the gtx or ultra.

I'm going to hold off from buying a new card for a few months, or at least until you lot do your comparison article.

Hopefully the guys at xfx (or do they just do Nvidia?) (et al) will come up with something better than the reference card with a few stickers. If they don't (or can't), then I'm going with Nvidia.

I don't know if its just me, but in the summary when you click on 'here' it doesnt seem to link to anything. Just reading the review now which I imagine 'here' is supposed to link to?

No digit, it dosn't, but if you click on the link in the line "The gallery of shots highlights that the only discernible difference between it and the reference card lies with the sticker on top of the fan." on the first page, it takes you to a review of the reference card they were sent (which is essentially what the HIS card is).

I'll even put the direct link here for you, hows that?

I was mainly pointing out the issue to Tarinder, I found the review via the main page but thanks anyway

[Tarinder]

digit,

That's strange. I've made no changes to the code and the summary 'here' links to the first page of benchmarks on the main review. Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

[vinnyT]

You cheated Tarinder, it works now, just tried it again It was the link on the 2nd page in the summary section.

Digit, sorry wasn't trying to imply that you are a noob.
