I Need to know what video card is better, and fast?

I know the X800XL has 16 pipes where as the X850 Pro only has 12.

My X800XL died after 3 months and they gave me a X850 Pro for an exchange, should I take it back or keep it?

Thanks.

Well... you can always ask. 🙂

But if they don't have any X800XLs, the X850Pro is the closest thing in terms of performance. An X800XT or X850XT would be a big step up, and an X800GTO or X800Pro would be a step down.

If you don't want the X850Pro, and they won't give you something else, maybe you can ask for store credit towards a faster card like an X850XT? Assuming they have one for a reasonable price...
 
At stock speeds, the X800XL is a faster card (16 pp vs. the X850 Pro's 12 pp).

Overclocked, the X850 Pro will be slighter better.
 
I tried it with my cable and I'm not thrilled with the picture, but I do a 2 VHS tapes I'm going to tranfer to DVD.
