NVIDIA 7800 GT Mini-Roundup

XFX GeForce 7800 GT Overclocked

XFX is another well known company that makes quality graphics cards, and their version of the 7800 GT comes with a factory overclock. The core clock is set at 450MHz and the memory clock at 1.05GHz, which should give it a slight increase in performance over the ASUS 7800 GT, and we will see by exactly how much a little later in the review.

As you can see, the XFX GeForce 7800 GT OC looks exactly the same as NVIDIA's reference 7800 GT with the standard gray cut-out over the HSF. The only difference is a tiny XFX logo in the head of the fan that's easy to miss if you aren't looking closely.

The box is the standard X-shaped box in which most XFX parts are shipped; smaller than the ASUS box, but just as frustrating (if not more) because of how difficult it is to get to the card inside without ripping it to pieces. The art on the box is interesting and the green is signature XFX color. Also, the card comes bundled with a few games: FarCry, X2 The Threat, and Moto GP2. We aren't sure about the other two games, but FarCry is still a decent game with graphics that the 7800 GT will run easily at the highest possible settings.
