What's Hot

Highly affordable price, 768MB of GDDR3 memory, able to compete with higher-specified cards

What's Not

Variable performance in gaming tests, chipset is a bit long in the tooth

The Final Word

EVGA's e-GeForce 9600 GSO is a tasty little offering with one of the best cost-to-performance ratios we've seen. Hardcore gamers may want to cough up for something a little more gutsy, but for the asking price you can’t go wrong.
