Hey, well, I need a new video card and I have narrowed it down to these two. The price for the X850 Pro is 200$ and the XT is 250$. For the 50$ dollar difference, would you just step up to the XT?

Get the XT... it has the bigger heatsink, and is basically a PE.

I believe you have a chance to unlock the pipes on the pro and overclock but it's not a sure thing so just spend the extra 50 bucks on the XT.

Thanks guys. Sigh..., this video card is going to be leaving a HUGE hole in my wallet (I'm 18, paying for college tuition...).

For only $50 more the X850XT is a no-brainer ... at this point its the fastest AGP GPU in existance.

Well, I went with the X850XT and have been very happy with it. Next upgrade is a whole new system. :laugh:
