What video card do you own?

BFG 6800GT

9800 pro OC'd to XT speeds

Wow, the 6800 series is way ahead of the X800 series here at AT.

Wow seems like the 6800GT is a hit.

I have a 6800 gt I just got. But man, I really regret not saving another 150 and getting the x800xt pe ... it's the best card out there right now. Too much blasted 6800 gt/ultra hype got me to buy one

ATI 9800 Pro.
I'm thinkin on 6800 gt
ain't likely to be worth the swapout.

Right now I'm running my trusty 8500. I'm looking to upgrade in the next month or so most likely to a 6800NU. Seems to be the best bang for my budget. Who knows, maybe they'll have a deal for one on Black Friday.

I'm using a 5900 but I'm getting my EVGA 6800 limited edition SOON!!! Hopefully fedex calls me today to tell me I can pick it up, or I'll be getting it tommorrow.

shilala,

What are you smoking? I want some of it. Even if you've got an OC'ed 9800 Pro 256MB you should see a BIG difference in game performance. I went from a 9800 Pro 256MB (stock speed) to an HIS Excalibur X800 XT IceQ II [PE} and it literally doubled my framerates EVEN WITH EVERYTHING TURNED ON AND SET TO HIGH!

Granted, my CPU is going to be a bit faster and the dual-channel memory on the FX-53 helps a little, but from all reviewer accounts and the 6800GT owners on AT you won't be dissapointed with the 6800GT. It is currently the best bang for the <$400.00 buck. Better performance than a stock X800 Pro (not OC'ed or flashed to X800 XT specs) AND supports SM 3.0 (Direct-X 9.0C).

This is coming from a guy who has an X800 XT PE. I'm very happy with my X800 XT PE, it is a great card with top-shelf performance - right up there with the 6800 Ultra in just about any 3D game out right now, even faster in some games. However, the 6800GT is the best performance/price value going right now. If you've got the money "Just do it".

-------------------------
I have nothing better to say at this time.

Looks like a few others were annoyed ATI opted to ship the same card for the 3rd calendar year in a row- 56>9 for the 6800>X800 ratio? That would have been reversed last year with the 9800s.

People seem to be avoiding the X800 in droves, comparable performance or not.
