There's no denying the performance of the 8600 range is slightly below what we would have hoped for but overall the card will give you playable frame rates at up to 1,600 x 1,200 (or 1,680 x 1,050 if you have a widescreen monitor) with some tweaking of in-game settings.
As for the particulars of the XFX Fatal1ty 8600 GT, XFX has almost got the complete package. A superb cooler, great looks, the fastest clock speeds and DirectX 10 compatibility. If XFX can throw HDCP into the mix, this card would tick all the right boxes.
