User Reviews for XFX Geforce 8800ULTRA XXX

  • Reviewed by: SpinningLizard

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: This card out performs all other cards on the market. SLI with this card cannot be beat by any other 2 card configuration.

    Weaknesses: High price. No longer available, so finding a pair is near impossible if you want a second.

    Overall Evaluation: This card is amazing. It will run almost all games fine with the highest settings and 1920x1200 on a 24" monitor. It is so sweet. I just wish I would have gotten 2 when they were out and not waited for the price to drop as they are no longer made and it has been very hard to find a second one for SLI.
