So the PCB is finished in the traditional ATI red colour, while a large copper heatsink and fan assembly covers the VPU but not the memory chips. As with all the X800 cards, this one is a single slot solution, unlike the nVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra. This makes the X800 XT a high-end card that’s small form factor friendly. But it’s not just the size of this card that makes it a great solution for small form factor systems, it’s also far from power hungry – in fact this X800 XT draws marginally less power than the older Radeon 9800 XT. This is borne out by the fact that the X800 XT only sports a single Molex connector instead of the two seen on the 6800 Ultra. "</i>
