Reviews of the PNY Verto GeForce 7900 GS
-
CNET Review
The Good: Faster than the more expensive card in this segment from ATI; not too expensive.
The Bad: Might become obsolete in a few months.
The Bottom Line: Featuring Nvidia's latest midrange GPU, the $200 PNY Verto GeForce 7900 GS offers a strong bang for the buck compared to its ATI rival. We recommend it if you are looking to play 3D games on an LCD monitor, aren't too concerned about sky-high frame rates, and won't be bothered if a next-gen replacement emerges in the coming months.
