{NG}Fidel said:Get at least an X1800XL, even though its around the same speed the features make up for it Bro. You will want SM3.0 around now. Even better get an X1800XT.
fallguy said:One better... XTX for $505 shipped; http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102671
Its OEM, but for that price, I wouldnt care.

I almost bit on one for $750, but I said HELL NO, thats just encouraging them to up their prices. So I went with the 7800GT!

What are you smoking. The X1900XT blows the 7800gtx 256mb out of the water.Desdenova said:Why would you do that? The X1900XT is way slower at almost everything, and you'll lose all kinds of money on the sale of the GTXs?

Desdenova said:His signature says he has 7800GTX SLI. His post says he's selling his 7800GTXs to buy a X1900XTX. Note the plural nature of "7800GTXs".
The only game I know of where one X1900XTX can equal 7800GTX SLI is FEAR, in the others the SLI wins, often by a lot.
So he's going to sell his faster 7800GTXs at a loss to get one slower X1900XTX. If that makes sense to you, I probably wasted my time typing this.
I know what you wrote and I still don't think it's a dumb decision. If he's going to sell his cards, NOW is the time to do it. As soon as the 7900 series of cards are out, then the 7800 series of cards are going to be worth less.Desdenova said:His signature says he has 7800GTX SLI.

sabrewolf732 said:False. Usually loses by a small bit, and there are several games where it dominates the 7800gtx's in sli. Also, considering that he could probably get at least 325 each, and considering that the x1900xt is $475, he actually makes a profit
Warrior said:i dont concider only takeing the pictures from anouther site, where they are all high ass resolution, a great comparison.. why not take some low resolution pictures?.. cause the GTX512 owns in low resolution, thats where the speed of the cards are really compareed... not how many shader units.... of course the XTX is going to own at higher resolutions... but comparing the 2 at lower.. the 512s faster....and more people play games at 1280 cause of thier LCDs... so why are you showing 1920
