B.Ob. Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Looking Back Pt. 2: X800 & Catalyst Under The Knife "However, while we had a good handle on the 9700 Pro and its R3xx lineage, we couldn’t help but wonder about the R420, the successor and very much the offspring of the R300 design. Built even more for shader power and based on an already strong design, could the R420 tell us something the R300 couldn’t? How did ATI handle the R420’s drivers in the face of real competition with NVIDIA’s 6000 series, versus the landslide over the 5000 series? To answer these questions and more, we’re back today once again putting the Catalyst drivers to the test, this time with the R420-based X800 Pro." Very interesting read!!!

PurSuiT Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 That was a good read, specially when ppl with 9700Pro cards complain they can not come to LANs cuz the games will not run on there systems, but yet going to a x800Pro would do little good.
