yiotta Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Researching video cards again.... Is the X850 the hotrod out there and are we to the point that we really need to watercool these things? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolMaster Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 If ur asking what the highest end card right now, it's the 7800 Nvidia card, but ati is coming out with the crossfire which is like nvidia's SLI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spazmire11 Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 7800gtx is the best card out there now no you dont NEED too watercool them but.... do it anyway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imm0rt41 Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Yeah, at the moment the 7800gtx is the mostp owerful, followed by ATi's Radeon X850XT. You don't actually need to water cool either of them, but if you do, you can squeeze a lot morep ower out of them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cchalogamer Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Actually overall in the review i saw it was 7800GTX>7800GT>X850XT but if im not mistaken the GT was a pre OCed version... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerm Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 Right now the 7800GTX is king of the realm. You don't have to water cool anything at stock speeds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuJuMaN89 Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 i like how the people recommended the 7800GTX have nvidia in their sigs.... x850xtPE is better as cchalogamer said. its true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flashstar Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 I hate NVIDIA, but if you think that the x850xtpe is better, READ THE REVIEWS! Every review that i've seen puts the 7800gtx AHEAD of the x850xtpe! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerm Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 i like how the people recommended the 7800GTX have nvidia in their sigs.... x850xtPE is better as cchalogamer said. its true. 532385[/snapback] ummmmm do you see nvidia in my sig? The 7800gtx is faster than anything else on the market right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verran Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 ummmmm do you see nvidia in my sig? The 7800gtx is faster than anything else on the market right now. 532420[/snapback] I'm kinda thinking that too. I have mostly nVidia cards here, but I look at both brands everytime I shop. The x850 is a killer card, but the 7800 is a generation past it. Plain and simple. And until crossfire comes out, nVidia will continue to have the ace up their sleeve. I personally can't wait for the 520 and crossfire from ATi. I think it's gonna be sweet, but with all their delays you have to wonder what they'll do to keep up at this point.

Joseph4829 Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Who makes the best 7800gtx? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
godmode117 Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 ya the 7800 is the best but IMO, i love cards made by ATI because i think that ATI's cards are like hotrods and nvidias are like little ricer cars Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
