ATI stellte uns bereits vor ein paar Tagen eine X800XL mit 512 MB zur Verfügung. Die Fotos der Karte finden sich unter "Read More". Ein Test der Karte fällt allerdings vorerst aus: Das in unserem Grafikkartentestsystem befindliche Intel D915GUX-Mainboard läuft leider nicht mit der X800XL 512 MB, sondern zeigt nur einen Fehler bei der Initialisierung der Grafikkarte. Sobald das Problem gelöst ist, werden wir die neue Grafikkarte in den Augenschein nehmen.
