ASUS EAX1800XT TOP - Top results?
Top card from ASUS. This indicator is completely correct, as ASUS, the king of ATI chip video cards, was created.
The only question left open is whether the top card is capable of producing top results. Well, the VR-Zone testers were able to try out the ASUS EAX1800XT TOP VGA controller, so we can find out if it’s going to be worth investing in.
Before we get to the results, it is worth saying that the ASUS EAX1800XT TOP is a factory tuned ATI X1800 XT card. Instead of the factory clock signals (625 MHz / 1500 MHz), the new work operates at a core speed of 695 MHz and a memory speed of 1600 MHz (effective). In addition to the clocks, the card has several interesting features. That's it ASUS special cooling and the use of external power, which allows us to take a heavy load off the shoulder of our machine's power supply.
Let's see the dry data after the introduction!

In light of the results, we can say that a good card was made at ASUS again and that not the best is the fault of the company that signed the graphics chip, not the best. It’s also worth noting that the ASUS EAX1800XT TOP is very close in performance to NVIDIA’s fastest card, but you can only do so with factory-tuned clocks.
Normally the exact results would follow here, but the VR-Zone testers made so many graphs that we advise everyone to get tired of seeing the numbers!
