Video Card Choices

[Billabond1]

I have to make a choice here. This is my problem. I have been loyal to nvidia forever, but there is a deal on an ati card

These are the cards

ATI x800 xl 256 meg agp ($209.99)

or nvidia geforce 6600gt 128 meg agp (about $180)

 

What i want to know, is if that ati would be a lot better than the 6600gt. I don't really want to stray from nvidia unless i am going to get much better performance.

 

thanks

quite a bit if we look at the pci-e editions probably would be the same for agp editions

that is a very nice deal for a x800xl, and I would go for it. A x800xl is much faster than a 6600gt.

ati gives my employer special deals on their cards, such as ati x800 xt plat. edition for $329

 

anyway, i guess i should go with the ati then

Yea, that x800xl will give the 6600gt a decent spanking

 

**edit** heh, the 6600gt score is what I'm gonna be aiming for with my aiw 9800pro **edit**
