Trying to get the right video card for the system you are building? Can't figure out where to go or what to buy? Amazed at the many choices on the market? You are not alone in that search. There are a couple of schools of thought when it comes time to purchase a graphics card. There is the all-out-top-of-the-line-gotta-have-it-gamer that will take nothing less than the top of the line card, regardless of the price. Then there is the more cautious approach where some thought takes place; what is really needed and will do the job instead of just going for the cheapest card around. Many times this leads to disappointment for the end user when the graphics quality just is not there. The Gigabyte 8600GT is neither a high end card or by any means a low end card, but it falls somewhere closer to the top than the bottom end of the scale. This Gigabyte 8600GT is a PCI Express x16 video card that features Silent-Pipe II Technology for its cooling needs, has 256MB of GDDR3 memory, is DirextX 10 ready, supports HDCP technology, is SLI ready, and last but not least supports HDTV output.
