Radeon X800 XT Platinum

[GeneralGrievous]

Hey general grevious where the hell are you getting those results. The XT doesn't beat the 6800in very many tests. Maybe it beats it in 40-45% but overal the 6800 is a bit better.

My question is where you are getting your results. If you count anands latest test they are even at 6 in AGP. I don't understand what you are counting to have the 6800 U winning more tests. And to be honest, Warcraft III's credibility in a gpu test is limited.

Depends on whose reviews you go by.

In a sense, it does. Some reviews have the XT performing poorly, like this anandtech one, which has it exactly on par with the 6800 U. But there are other reveiws like the xbitlabs one that have the XT winning by a landslide.

ATI already HAS the LATEST drivers

That's what people said before the cats 4.6, which DID increase x800 performance.

I can't justify spending $$$$$ on a rehashed , rebadged R300.!!!

The Nvidia 6800 Ultra offers, latest tech , video encoding benefits, PS3.0 and it will get faster..

6800 Ultra is the baddest card on the planet.!!!

evoillusion: Not a bad response for a first post. You typed 16 words (counting 'XT' as word) and got a sweet flame war going. They flamed you for it, but took that bait all the same. You even got them bickering over whether or not yout thread was flamebait or not. Your parents should be proud. Since no one has said it yet, "Welcome to AT".

Another Classy post by Nitromullet. :beer: Well done again.

Yes, welcome to AT evoillusion. Don't let any of the critics bother you. We were all newbies to the forum once. In general, it helps to search, but yours is a honest post. Know that fanboy activity can be harsh, but that is why we have some nice emoticons. Now, if we could just get a cookie.

Well i heard that

seems highly unlikely

I highly doubt that

I would definately believe

i doubt that

i would probably lean more towards

Id be willing to bet

Your arguments would be a lot more convincing if you had included links to facts/reviews instead of just listing your personal opinions.

Well i cant if you would have read the post and not picked it apart you would know this. How the hell am i supposed to know what Ati and Nvidia are thinking. Im just making a probable guess.

Seriously why would either of them want us to base reviews on unreleased beta hardware with shaky drivers. I mean come on, my post is just common sense!
