ATI Technologies Inc. TV Tuner Adapters

The Bottom Line: ATI's Radeon X1950 XTX is the fastest single-chip 3D card that you can buy. Unfortunately, with Windows Vista and its accompanying gaming technology, it's going to become obsolete in just five months. ATI adjusted the price of the Radeon X1950 XTX accordingly, but at $450, it's still not an insignificant purchase. We recommend it only if money is no object.

Editors' Take: ATI's next-gen family of high-end graphics cards is fast, but the cards are not as elegantly designed as Nvidia's competing GeForce 7800 series.

The Bottom Line: ATI's second-best 3D card brings all of the requisite features to the 3D gaming table, but its specialized performance makes it less compelling.

The Bottom Line: We don't recommend that you buy a Radeon X850-based CrossFire setup due to the core chip's age, but at least ATI proves that it can keep up with Nvidia.

The Bottom Line: It'll take a little tweaking to get the most out of ATI's latest All-In-Wonder, but for the price, this TV tuner/DVR/radio tuner/graphics card is a fair deal.
