Palit GeForce 9600GSO Sonic 768MB Review @ Techgage
Techgage reviews the Palit GeForce 9600GSO Sonic graphics card which features 768MB of DDR3 memory but only a 192-bit memory bus. Techgage writes in the conclusion:
If money is no real issue and you happen to have $150 to spend, the GSO can still be considered, and that’s why things are confusing. If you happen to play games that thrive on more stream processors (Crysis, STALKER), then it might be a good buy, but you have to choose carefully. Overall, the GT will perform better in the majority of games, while the GSO will excel in very few. So when in doubt, the GT will be a better deal.
If you are on a tight budget and happen to need a new card, then the GSO would make a good choice… as long as it’s priced right at launch. This particular Palit card should only carry a $10 premium, I’ve been told, so it looks to be the best GSO offering out there at launch, making it even more worthwhile. Throw in some overclocking, and it’s just as impressive as a 9600 GT, and more so in some cases.
