Bearing in mind the 7600 GS is just £47 (inc VAT), and in all the tests with a maximum detail setting we still see playable frame rates. In a directly comparative situation, the EVGA nForce 650i Ultra just doesn't quite keep up with the other boards we've tested dropping anything from four to eight frames per second. The only exception is in Call of Duty 2 where the Gigabyte P35 board is out performed by the EVGA nForce 650i Ultra by five fps.
