Ok, first of all, let's be rational and not start flaming wars.
Like Jonny said, <b>he</b> posted that, that was something I hadn't tried and that was his experience with it.
Second, we also used 3DMark 2001. I was trying to get both Wolfenstein MP and Max Payne benchmarks as well but I had problems getting the numbers on each test and I had a timeframe to post this review. For Max Payne, 3 of the cards wouldn't run the benchmark at all and would just exit out of the program while loading. For Wolfenstein MP, I must have downloaded 10 different versions, none of which would run the atdemo6 or atdemo8 tests, yet I have the numbers for every other video card from a recent review on the Xtacy lineup. On the next video card review I will try and get both of those benchmarks working, and should be adding 3D Studio Max to the lineup.
Third, I based my prices on <b>retail</b> prices. For example you go to best buy and how much is the video card. Ti200 from Visiontek: $199. Ti from Visiontek: $149. Radeon 7500: $199. I can't go buy internet prices because their could be things like the card is OEM or not anybody can find that price or any reason like that. That is why I noted in my review twice that it can be found for cheaper on the net and that I had found it for under $110.
Fourth, you are absolutely correct about overclocking, that is something I definitely should have done.

The primary reason to get a 7500 is dual monitor support and good DVD playback.

Notice both those points are in the pros list.
