ATI_NVIDIA price vs Performace whats better 6800 GT or X800 Pro ?
ATI_NVIDIA price vs Performace whats better 6800 GT or X800 Pro ?
I allways bought my cards this way, thats why i have a 9600 Pro at the moment. From what i read the 6800GT is a more powerfull card and cheaper is this correct, though you may have to buy a bigger PSU, me only got a 350 Watt at the moment but upgrading to a Silent 400 Watt soon, so it don't matter Also the 6800GT seems to a great performer in DirectX games as well as OpenGl games well Not sure about DirectX games but so far from whative read. So anyone help me out, i realy would like to upgrade, going to give the 9800 Pro a MISS and try for somthing that will last me alot longer in the upgrade life cycle. Thanks. HELLO NURSE. |

Either will provide you with adequate performance for current games. You're not going to make a mistake with any although IMO the current power requirements of the nVIDIA cards is mad. -- Conor Opinions personal, facts suspect. |

Either will do you fine, however, *IF* you plan on upgrading your motherboard in the next year or so, I would hold off on going top buck on one of these guys and get the 9800 Pro or x600. Simple reason is that you should be seeing native PCI-Express cards out there, not ones using bridge chips. And also you'll be able to use that spiffy SLI connector on the nVidia cards But if you want a go right now, either should do you good. -- "All we had were our dreams, and that's all we needed to be free" *To reply, replace 'deadfishies' with 'bigfoot.'* |
