X800 XT-PE all the way

Yeah, the X800 would beat a 6600gt no problem.

HousERaT · 09-04-05, 06:39 PM

to the forums....
this is not hardly a fair comparison...... I'd be surprised if you can get an X800XTPE for a similar price of the 6600GT.

I think he meant the 6800gt. But in that case it's still better to get the x800xtpe. Those things match the 6800 ultras.

HousERaT · 09-04-05, 10:15 PM

since it's the 6800gt you're talking about I'll advise you to get the X800XTPE if you can get your hands on one. I love mine and it's a great card. If you can get a good deal on one, grab it. The 6800GT is a good card but the XTPE is superior.

The X800 seems better... but is like half the power of the 7800GTX!

Mr.Guvernment · 09-05-05, 10:25 PM

is the x800 still superior when you overclock your GT to Ultra + speeds
