Dear Francis
Welcome to the Product Reviews Newsletter. For anyone who watches the graphics card industry, the continual leapfrogging between the big two players in the sector is something of a regular occurrence, but their constant determination to have the best in the market has led to some fantastic advances. ************************* Daily News Podcast *********************** Our daily newsletter is now available as a podcast, covering the latest developments in IT along with breaking technology news and comment on the stories behind the headlines. Click here to subscribe to the Daily Technology Newsletter: http://mail.vnunet.com/cgi-bin1/flo/y/elLW0CBzc30OCh0CCbl0Eb Click here to download the latest podcasts: http://mail.vnunet.com/cgi-bin1/flo/y/elLW0CBzc30OCh0Cwbu0Ec ***************************************************************** The latest leap yesterday saw ATI take pole position with its new Radeon cards, the X1900 range, and for anyone into gaming it will mean stunning graphics that make images ever more life-like. Although the cost puts them out of the reach of many, the knock-on effect will be that current high-end cards will become priced for the average user. You can find a full review here in the newsletter, and links to the X1900 XTX performance results and those of every card we've tested over the past year, giving you plenty of scope for making a comparison should you be thinking of upgrading. And, with this latest advance from ATI, we eagerly await Nvidia's response. ************************** Advertisement ************************** Has the gloss of your pay-per-click or CPA marketing campaign finally worn off? High placement in the search engines becoming harder (and more expensive than ever) to achieve? Top listings frequently producing irrelevant results? You'd be forgiven for thinking what was supposed to be about visibility and new customers has turned into a black art.
