May 6, 200521 yr Well, the topic subject is pretty self explanatory. I want to upgrade from my ATI 9600Pro, which BTW is a good VC, but cannot make a desition.I have found the X800 can be found at a cheaper price. I think it must be because of the the newest X850.What do you guys think,Thanks,Leo
May 6, 200521 yr This is an easy one...suggest the new 256MB X800XL chipset...can be found from numerous manufactures for $299-$350. Not much slower then the X800XT-X850XT, which should be twice the speed of the 9800Pro.Review Link: http://www.guru3d.com/article/content/177/My suggested brand: http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp...N82E16814125174Only one problem, it uses the PCI-E (Express) not AGP bus...:-(
May 7, 200521 yr Hi gents, I agree with D.Enault that the X800XL is probably the best bang for buck. And I also believed they were only available for PCI-e --> wrong! For example PowerColor has such an AGP offering. Otherwise, there are a couple of display adapter threads in the other hardware forum (MS FS subforum). Good luck and kind regards Jaap
