Then for $40 more, the DirectX 11-enabled Radeon HD 5750 offers very playable performance in most games, even at 1920x1200. The older generation GeForce 96 GT offered better value at its respective price points, but perhaps most importantly, the Radeon HD 4770 destroyed the GT 240, for a mere extra $10. For about $100, we saw no real reason why anyone would pick up this card other than to possibly use it as a dedicated PhysX card. However, much like the GeForce GT 220 that was released a bit prior, the GT 240 was a huge disappointment.

This forgettable product was supposed to sit between the GT 2 GT in terms of both price and performance. Towards the end of last year, Nvidia launched a new graphics card, the GeForce GT 240. Out of our last seven graphics card reviews, only one was about a new GeForce GPU, and a terrible one at that. While we usually try to bring you timely and breaking facts from the two main discrete GPU makers, Nvidia and ATI, as of late it's not been up to us to bring balance to the coverage that goes to each company.
