    7800GT PCI-e vs. X850XT AGP Personal Comparison

    This is not scientific by any means, just my personal opinions and observations. First off, I had to change out my mobo to an Asus K8N4-E DELUXE in order to use the PCI-e card. That is the only change to my system for this comparison. See my sig for my other components. I ran 3DMark05 and...

    PNY Verto GeForce 7800 GT

    I agree, I was just wondering why there was such a price difference for the same card. CompUSA and BestBuy are usually on par with each other.

    LCD Monitor for gaming

    I have the 930B. Make sure to use the DVI connection. I play games like Doom 3, HL2 and FEAR and think it looks great. I had a 25ms LCD before and this is a vast improvement. I think you will be very happy with it.

    7800GT PCI-e vs. X850XT AGP?

    That is what the salesman told me. He said "you should buy the insurance plan, if any thing goes wrong with the card, we'll replace it or even if nothing goes wrong you can return it for store credit at the end of the plan." I said "that?s a great deal, so I can't lose either way?" He said...

    7800GT PCI-e vs. X850XT AGP?

    It's not fraud. They told me when I bought the plan that I could bring the card back at any time during the coverage (2 yrs) and they would either replace it or give me store credit for the purchase price "no questions asked". The plan was $50. I'm nearing the end of my two year coverage so I...

    7800GT PCI-e vs. X850XT AGP?

    Thanks for the suggestions. Now I have to buy the card from CompUSA because I have the TAP insurance on my 9800pro there. I get like $250, no questions asked when I turn it in. What does everyone think of this card? http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=332688&pfp=SEARCH

    7800GT PCI-e vs. X850XT AGP?

    I'm going to buy one of these cards. My 9800pro does not cut it with FEAR and Q4. I have an AMD 64 3200+ (754) which limits my mobo choices and future upgradeability. I found an ASUS mobo for about $90 at newegg. The cards cost about the same. Is it worth $90 to go for the 7800GT? Is the 7800GT...
