Conclusion
Throughout our testing the X1600 has been a relatively solid performer. Gigabyte has built a very solid performer here, with the use of the X1600 chip from ATI, as well as the superb use of the Silent Pipe 2 cooler. Makes this card a very cool component, superior cooling, as well as superb performance in all categories. This card is not aimed at the hardcore gamer, though being aimed at the gamer on a budget. At an attractive price, and attractive performance make this card one to keep your eye on, if you want to build/upgrade a computer to be more current. Available in both AGP, and PCI-E flavors the X1600 should not be overlooked.
Pros:
- Silent
- Cheap
- Decent performance
Cons:
