GET AN X1900XT!

Maybe worded a little strong, but I agree.

Why YES! It is a 2405FPW.
Is the X1900XT really worth the extra money. The 7800GT is 285.00 and the x1900xt is 479.00 which is a 194.00 difference in price. I know that?s not a lot but I just dropped 1200.00 on the dell system.
OK fug it I?m going to get the x1900xt. ?

Looking at a possible move from a BFG 7800GT OC (450/1050) to an XFX 7800GTX (490/1300).

A waste of time and money.

Just overclock your GT?

it won't go any higher than 450/1100 as it's OC from the factory anyway..

You won't get $275 for a used GT now. I would just keep it as it's a good card and should hold you off fine until next gen.

The eVGA 7800GT CO SE can already be had at new egg for $265 after rebate($285 before). The one I have easily oc's past 500/1200 with the stock copper cooler. Save you're money. 😉

Are you sure? I've got an XFX that shipped @ 450/1100 but it also came with the software to OC it further.

In fact i'd have a look at this thread:

Save up and Get a Radeon X1900XT

 

[SpeedZealot369]

not worth it at all.
Either get an x1900xt or dont get anything until new nvidias come out.
