If longevity is any measure of success, Gigabyte's budget-busting GV-250 OC-1GI board is the daddy. After all, the GeForce GTS 250 GPU found at its heart card can trace its roots right back to the GeForce 8800 GT circa late 2007.OK, it's gone through a...

Ageing technology, Soundly beaten by the Radeon HD 5770, Too expensive for what it is, Lacks DX11 support, Badge engineering at its worst...
The GPU that underpins this board was once one of the very best. It still offers many decent features including that 256-bit bus. But there's only so much you can do with a die shrink and a rebranding. Frankly, the game is up for the GeForce GTS 250 ch...

Verdict: An aging GPU is put to good use. This card packs plenty of graphical power into a small and cool package. The GV-N250ZL-1GI uses Nvidias GeForce GTS 250 chipset, which launched a few months ago to very little fanfare. This is because its...

We know about the GTS 250; its nothing more than a rebranded 9800 GTX+. While this is annoying to a degree for the less experienced users who tend not to keep up with whats happening, if you are looking for something that is to be a well known con...
Up until our last few tests there wasnt anything too exciting about the card. Sure, the card performed like we thought it would in the numbers game, but upon looking at the temperature of the card along with the power usage, it was simply amazing t...

Overall, we highly recommend the GIGABYTE GTS 250 1GB OC to those of you looking for an all-round great performer that has amazing cooling potential. Even though it features a high-end heatsink, extremely good efficiency and a perfect...

Much has been made of Nvidias decision to release the GTS 250, mostly down to the fact that the 512MB parts are identical to the practically defunct 9800 GTX, itself a limited reworking of the now-ancient 8800GTX. Now, weve been praying for the green...

Wed like to thank Gigabyte for providing the GTS 250 and 9600GT for our review today. Both cards should appeal to different budget-minded users looking for an easy upgrade that will let them play todays PC games at decent resolutions. I wouldnt re...

Upon its announcement, Nvidia’s GeForce GTS 250 came in for more than when it emerged that the card would be, initially at least, little more than a rebadged GeForce 9800 GTX+ - a card that was only mild overclocked over the original GeForce 9800...
We’re always a little sceptical when it comes to graphics cards sporting extra memory above that of the stock model as it’s a common tactic by board partners to lure unknowledgeable consumers into buying inferior hardware. Happily though that&...

With all the video cards on the market today, which is the right one for you? Even on cards with the same GPU, you have lots of different choices. Clock speeds, outputs, fan noise, cooling efficiency, even PCB color! Gigabyte has long been famous for...

Neoseeker is back today with another review for your appraisal. Today, we are looking at new a card from Gigabyte, the GTS 250. The Gigabyte GTS 250 OC GV-N250OC-1GI to be more precise. The GTS 250 model came out about a month ago now, from NVIDIA. It...
Gigabyte did another great job here with the GTS 250. The Zalman cooler is really quite something: it is quiet, and keeps temperatures quite low. There really isnt much to find fault with -- it does its job quite well. Gigabyte can also be commended...

A few months back NVIDIA "released" the GeForce GTS 250 priced at just around $150. The reason behind the quotations in the previous statement is that the GTS 250 is not exactly something new. While a lot of NVIDIAs R&D dollars have gone into the...
Overall, the Gigabyte GV-N250OC-1GI placed nearly in the middle of the pack of our mid-priced assortment of graphics cards. It wasnt really a challenger to the higher priced GTX 260 Core 216 or Radeon HD 4870 cards, but easily surpassed the older Ge...

Since this is just a renamed card, and especially since Gigabyte specified only stock frequencies, the battle with the HD4850 continues here as well. The 1 GB GDDR3 helps a little as we can see that there’s a difference towards 9800GTX+ as well.I...
