Introduction

Over the past 6 months, the prices of top of the line graphics cards have become as “xtreme” as their affluent names. Laying almost £1000 on an SLI or Crossfire setup is not hard to do, of course this guarantees you the best frame rates money can buy. However, what about those of us who can’t afford such extravagances? Or those of us who aren’t bound to always running 1900*600 at 100 frames per second? For the £50 this card costs, the X1300 is a dream card for those that want to play their games or watch their movies with no problems at all, at comfortable detail levels; read on to find out why.
