MSI FX5600-VTDR128 Videocard Review

Most of us cannot afford to spend $500 every six months in order to keep up with the latest high end videocard technology. Since we can't always get what we want, the real trick becomes finding the next best videocard at an affordable price.MSI offer up one solution to this search for performance at an affordable price in the form of the new FX5600-VTDR128 GeForceFX 5600 based videocard. With a retail price of $235 CDN ($167 US) the card comes with a whole slew of features, games, and is most importantly a decent performer.That's all well and good, but what separates the MSI FX5600-VTDR128 from the rest of the GeForceFX 5600 competition? Unlike many products out there, MSI actually include a good software bundle with their videocards for starters. For example the FX5600-VTDR128 card comes with Morrowind, Ghost Recon, Duke Nukem: MP and a seven game demo/lite game CD.
