    At 1600x1200 and beyond the card pretty much demolishes the opposition cards. The higher clocks and core improvements (especially in the LMA II logic and the massive memory bandwidth savings) ...

    3 February 2002, 00:00

    Therefore it seems that Matrox doesn't really have much to show with the G550. The 3D performance was poor, 2D performance is matched by current cards and DualHead is done ...

    19 January 2002, 00:00

    Overall, a very high performance graphics card with excellent core features at a high price. Not quite a Radeon 8500 killer performance wise but very close in the real world.
