MSI is one of the top companies in the world for producing system motherboards and their peripherals allowing them the flexibility to experiment and perfect many of their products before the market release date. They have been working in cooperation with VGA chipset giant NVIDIA for many years and this has paid off well for them allowing them to become one of the premiere manufacturers of high-end 3D VGA cards for the entire world.
We have reviewed many of MSI products on this site and they have always been a very feature oriented company usually offering more options standard on their motherboards than most companies include on their top boards. When it comes to VGA cards MSI has always included a giant software bundle along with excellent cables and adapters. If you want to see all the exact technical specs and included software you can see them here.
8X AGP first hit the market on motherboards a few months back and the first card to support it was the RADEON 9700 Pro to be followed by NVIDIA with the release of their new 8X Ti series of cards. This is the first time ATI has beat NVDIA to the punch and it most definitely set the tone for VGA sales in last years fourth quarter as ATI regained more market share in the gamers and retail arena. We are now going to take a look at MSI's entry into the 8X market. This card comes in the form of their Ti4200 8X version that continues the company's ability to create a solid VGA card with plenty of included software extras to via for your dollar.
