"As you can see, these cards offer blazingly fast performance. Both the HIS X800 Pro IceQ II and the faster X800 XT (PE) left us with a very good impression".

"Editors Choice Award" "This particular HIS IceQ II model shines above all the others I have seen so far. The ultra-quiet yet superbly effective cooling system ensures that it overclocks awesomely, reaching far beyond even X800 XT speeds on the core".

"Produto Recomendado Clube do Hardware Award". ""The HIS Radeon 9800 Pro IceQ is an excellent video card, recommended for the serious gamer who wants high performance and high image quality but does not want or cannot afford a Radeon 9800 XT or a GeForce FX 5950 Ultra and neither is in the mood to give their own blood to buy a Radeon X800 or a GeForce 6800. This is a card that has good cost/benefit ratio for the high performance video card segment. "

"Produto Recomendado Clube do Hardware Award". "The HIS Radeon 9550 VIVO is an excellent graphics card for its purpose: a cheap graphics card with performance between the Radeon 9200 and the Radeon 9600,offering an excellent ost/benefit ratio. The comparison between the Radeon 9550 and its direct competitor, the GeForce FX 5500,is very interesting.In simpler games, both have similar performance. But when we increase the image quality, the ATI model proves to be superior, with absurd differences to the nVidia model (87% faster in the game X2 � The Threat and 70.47% faster in 3DMark01 SE when we used the maximum quality possible). "

"Test Winner in the CHIP Online graphics card test Award" "Only 85 costs the brand-new Radeon 9550. This small pixel acrobat of the brand Direct-X9 fits into the higher budget-segment with its two ertex- and four pixel pipelines".

"Gruntville Approved Award" "This card is more than capable in the area of digital/analog video capture. Those with more than one rig specialized for gaming and other family oriented affairs should be more than happy handing over the budget friendly price for such a versatile card. You won�t be disappointed with the bundled software or the additional cables; which nowadays is quite rare in the lower end card market. I know this 9550 VIVO will have a happy life paired up with my DV Camera. This card is a perfect compliment to what I'm already doing".

"Merit Awards" "The iFan however is very quiet, just perfect for the Home Theater PC.Overall, the HIS 9550 VIVO 128MB video package is a quality buy at just around $100 USD. If you have an HDTV or plan on getting one, then make sure to buy a component adapter to go with the video card. Standard televisions will benefit from the included full-length S-Video cable. ".

"Great Product Award" While walking away from this review, I just can't find a reason to not recommend this card to the economically fickle computer users looking for a little gaming and a lot of features for the almighty dollar.

"Excellent Award" "Whilst a stock RADEON X800 PRO had temperatures peaking about 60 degrees Celsius in our air-conditioned test lab, the HIS X800 PRO IceQ II clocked temperatures that were only 47 degrees Celsius on average. That's more than the 11 degrees differential certified by HIS themselves, which we were very impressed... priced well among its competition while offering one of the best graphics card cooling solutions, a neat bundle of accessories, software and games.

"Editors Choice Award" HIS has, once again showed a incredible product. They have once again made a wonderfull card, with a great noiseless cooling sulution. The HIS cooler is with cool, iceblue LED light that looks very good. The memory on the X600XT from HIS, is ounted with some great aluminium heatsinks, which is a very cool feature, this will also result i higher clocks in most cases. If we take a basic look on the new PCI-E generation, it looks very promosing indeed, we have not experienced any problems with this PCI-E card from HIS at all. Only great perfomance.
