Low-end VGA shootout - 8500GT, 8400GS, 2400XT, 2400 PRO - Testing setup
Author: Vedran Dakic
Date: 06 Sep 2007

Our standard testing machine was fired-up again for these cards only:
- EVGA 680i SLI motherboard
- Intel Core 2 Duo E6700
- OCZ Platinum XTC PC2-8000 2x1GB
- OCZ Vindicator cooler
- OCZ GameXstream 1010W PSU
- Western Digital RaptorX 150GB hard drive
- HP LP3065 30" LCD monitor

We're testing low-end cards here, so we decided to use only one resolution (1280x1024) with no AA/AF settings. This is the only reasonable resolution for testing since all of the other resolutions and AA/AF settings yield pretty unusable testing results - these cards just aren't made for them.
