GEFORCE 6600 PERFORMANCE

"In this review we will be testing the performance of the Nvidia GeForce 6600 using a selection of popular games software. The Nvidia GeForce 6600 is the budget version of the more expensive Nvidia GeForce 6600 GT, differences in speed of the GPU and Memory and lack of SLI capability are the only important differences. We will be benchmarking the Nvidia GeForce 6600 using games titles like Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War, World Racing 2 and Xpand Rally."
