6800gt or X800xl

Direct 3D games will run better on a x800xl than a 6800GT and OpenGL games run better on a Nvidia card.
 
1. The 6800GT is faster in most games but only by a couple FPS, 6800GT is better in Doom 3 by a bit more, X800XL is faster in HL2 and CSS
2. The X800XL doesn't overclock very well but the 6800GT does.
 
I say just get whatever is cheaper, unless you were playing Doom 3 -based games. Since you're most concerned about the Source engine, X800XL
 
there are so many benchmarks and threads on this that I think that if you know enough to compare these two you prolly know enogh to decide on your own.

edit: sorry this was prolly a bit rude, its a vaild question. 6800gt is the answer.
