Default 7800 for AGP

Oh... I think its a pretty decent upgrade from my 6600. yes?
Lets see about the $350 price ticket in just one month...

And it sucks... relatively speaking:

The card is actually slower than an X850XT-PE in F.E.A.R.


The 7800GS was underclocked (rather severely) from factory
defaults in Anandtech's review:

Another review:
http://ckturbo128.proboards4.com/ind...ead=1138544120
puts the 7800GS a few frames ahead of the X850 XT in F.E.A.R.

About 5FPS more at 1600x1200. Not worth getting excited
about, and certainly not worth the $300-350 upgrade cost.
