Introduction:
Today we are presenting an article in two parts. First will be an overall review of the Albatron GeforceFX 5700 Ultra 128MB video card. This review will be followed by a video card shootout between the FX5700 Ultra and the 9600XT. We wish to concentrate on the video card here in order to give our opinions on the product itself while at the same time providing complete comparison of the two top contenders in the mainstream video card category. It was pointed out a little while ago when we reviewed the 9600XT that putting it up against the 5600 was not a fair comparison, we agree. At the time the FX5600 was all we had to compare it against for this category. Shortly after we reviewed the 9600XT we received a Geforce FX5700 Ultra from Albatron and had every intention to put these two cards against each other. We thank everyone who was looking for that in the 9600XT review and for their patience in waiting for this review. Now, without further ado...
We would like to thank Albatron for providing this card for review today. I have to admit I was a bit excited when I received this video card. The packaging was rather attractive and when I opened the box I was greeted with many goodies. Albatron has been known to deliver quality products and just from the looks of things this was no exception. But could this video card live up to expectations? Let’s find out...
As mentioned before, the packaging for this video card is very attractive, a shiny box with the telltale nVidia fairy. Opening the box we find the video card, a bunch of software, cables and a manual. The video card also includes an output for svideo and a DVI output for a second monitor.
