crossbridges's Full Review: ATI RADEON 8500 Graphics card
I was looking for a great mid price video card, and I found it in the 8500LE. It is fast enough to play all the games I want in Windows, and it even works well with linux. The install for this card was so easy. I just stuck it in and it worked with the supplied drivers. I am currently using one of the new Soyo logic boards that uses the Via kt333 chip sets. It has the AGP Pro slots on it. I was worried that the card would have problems with the AGP Slots, but there were none. I am using a KDS Rad 5 Flat screen with this card, and the picture is bright and beautiful.
