which comp?

Any way to combine the two? I would take 2 definately, but 2 with the GT would rock...

And, is that a radeon x800 xt pe? or is there such a thin as an x8oo pe by itself? THe x800 xt pe is a great card, but *maybe* the 6800 line will last longer due to their implementation of sm3.0.

*depends on how much developers implement that into gamecode.
 
phantomracoon is an idiot. take a look at his thread history, its all flame bait and general lame crap :/

I gotta go with #2 because XMS sounds cooler than HyperX here.

Seriously why even compare a Xeon 2.6 to a FX-55. Xeons are'nt even meant for gaming. The only thing I can think of is because you think because they have the same speed its a close contest.
