MSI GeForce N9600GT OC Graphics Card Author: Shane Baxtor SUMMARY: Yet another fresh 9600GT enters our lab. MSI have chosen to go for higher clockspeeds with aftermarket cooling.

Introduction The latest company to come to the 9600GT parade is MSI, and like most other cards we’ve looked at they’ve decided to move away from the stock cooler and use their own design. They figure if they’re going to do that, they may as well bump up the speed of the card and see what it’s capable of. I feel like we’ve looked at so many 9600GT cards in such a short period of time that there isn’t all that much to say here. The 9600GT has quickly become a popular little offering thanks to its performance not being like that of normal x600GT offerings from NVIDIA in the past. We’re not going to write for the sake of writing, so let’s just get straight into the package and see what exactly we have on our hands here.
