ECS Nvidia GeForce GTS 250 PCIE 1024MB DDR3 Video Card NGTS250-1GMU-F Review

by  • 

It’s been along time since I’ve been on the green side of things, or the Nvidia side, I’ve been with the red team, ATI, for a while now so it was nice to get this Nvidia GeForce GTS250 to play with. Video cards play a big role in our computers now, not just for video games, but for physics rendering, folding and even video processing or encoding with compatible programs, so they’ve become much more than something that puts the video on our screens. With all of the tings they can do now, it’s a wonder why budget cards, or cards with low memory are even on the market, then again, not everyone takes advantage of these features and some people just want to play games or watch videos. 

A little bit ago I took a look at the Diamond ATI Radeon 4870 1gig video card, a higher end card for sure, today though I’ve got the other side of things, an Nvidia GTS 250 from ECS Elitegroup. It’s totally the other side of things, it costs about half as much and it’s from a different company, still though I was curious as to how it would perform against my current 4870. So read on to see how they compare, you might be a bit surprised as I was...
