Introduction

Palit are back at it again with another Sonic model, and in this case it comes in the form of a 9600GT which has just been released. The 9600GT is the latest card to come out of the NVIDIA camp and seems to sit in the market place in a bit of a weird position.

We had a look at the Galaxy card just last week and we can conclude that the card isn't your standard mid-range performer. It seems to sit just behind the 8800GT and around the same performance as the HD 3870.

As with all Sonic models from Palit this card comes out with an increased core and memory clocks so we'll just have to see how it goes today against the competition. But before we check that out, we of course need to have a look at the package and card which should prove to be very good. It's clearly got some stand out features; what are they? Well, there's only one way to find out and that's by moving forward.

The Palit 9600GT could be one of the best graphics cards we've seen to date, so let's see if first impressions hold up as we get stuck straight into it.
