help me deside with these 2 cards

which on the newest of these cards should I get in ur own experiance of u tested it out....

BFG GeForce 6800 OC 128MB DDR AGP Graphics Card

ATI Radeon X800 PRO



im using the ATI radeon 9800 pro now....

Please give me ur 9800 pro! :( Btw, I would get the nVIDA. ;)

I pefer ATI but I haven't tested these cards out, so really couldn't say.

(Why are you getting a new card if you have a 9800 Pro?)

I'd never buy nVIDIA again, myself. Overpriced, underdeveloped. Drivers tend to suck.

Cheers,

Even the much less expensive X800 Pro with its 12 pipes can beat the GeForce 6800 Ultra in some game tests. The price difference of about $100 will certainly be an argument that could win over a number of undecided buyers. When quality-enhancing features like FSAA and anisotropic filtering aren't enabled, however, it is often the GeForce 6800 Ultra that takes first place. Thanks to Temporal AA, though, ATi has a good solution even to this "problem". At any rate, most gamers would be loath to do without anisotropic filtering when using cards of this caliber anyway. But keep in mind that neither of the cards can be termed "slow". We´re talking about differences at very high levels!
