The Sapphire Ultimate X1600 Pro review by boxgods is one of those "HTPC centered reviews". So yeah... all you HTPC lovers take notice.

Both of the Sapphire X1600 Pro HDMI cards are fully HDCP ready and compliant. Rejoice!

So GeCube has 7 different X1600 Pros out there. Two are HDCP ready, one has VIVO, and 3 have HyperMemory (they can share your system memory). If you are confused talk to us via the forums. Also the HDCP Edition card that has Dual Dual Link DVI connectors comes with a DVI to HDMI adaptor.

The X850 XT is a high end card , while the X1300 series are low end and X1600 series are mid-end . The X850 XT even beats a 7800 GT .

X1600 series are mid-end cards. Not good if you want to play newer games. The memory bandwidth is only 12.48 GB/sec. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better performance the card.

rofl...

all the numbers you found in that memory bandwidth column are important, you should do your reasearch. click on them to get a definition.

@MrWizard - Yeah , it actually does outperform the 7800 GT , but the 7800 GT has SM3 support .

this was my last video card, um i loved it and it ran crysis !

Well i got mine directly from ATI Technologies and didn't go out to third party companies.

Overall this is a great video card, still have it ;)
