Have ATI underestimated Nvidia big time this round?

Yes, we should not take the "propaganda" numbers from Nvidia to be 100% accurate but X600XT isn't much faster than 9600XT...

The 9600xt has 4 pixel pipelines (assuming the x600xt does, too), and the 6600gt has 8 (don't really know, maybe twelve). Those proaganda numbers might be correct. The 660gt must absolutely OWN the x600xt.

I have a 9600XT and thinking about it, it was a waste of money.. if the x600 isn't at least twice as good, I'd keep away from it.

The X600 is the 9600, but in PCI-Express. ATI changed the clocks only ever so slightly.
