Ste Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 6800 Is a good card. I never had problems with it. Though, I haven't seen much of the x850xt PE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravy Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Well, i guess its the 6800U , im a bit of a nvidia fanboy. which one out of the x850xt pe and 6800u is better.? i really dont trust reviews anymore 569289[/snapback] completely depends on what you are after highest benchmark scores, x850, most features, 6800Ultra, neither is slow enough to make the "but the x850 or 6800Ultra is faster" argument, they are both extremely fast, so it depends check out this thread and screenshots, etc.... http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost....067&postcount=1 i feel it is better to go with a Series 6 NV card over any x800 ATI card with everything considered if you can find a 6800GT in AGP still that would be your best bet, Newegg onyl has one model left and it is not due in again until Nov.8th http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814119144 will probably sell out the same day becuase these are getting really hard to find for under $300 now that demand is high and prices have stopped dropping http://www.directron.com/evga6800gt256.html that would be a good card, considering 90% of 6800GT's overclock from 350/1000 to 400/1100 (Ultra speed) with no issues, mine did Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze_Badger Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Yes, but you don't need them. The bang:buck ratio is horrible. Unless you do CAD work in your spare time... Just read my guide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
