BFG 7800GS oc VS. 1650pro

[soric2]

I just bought the BFG card and its running very nice, that being said I was also looking at the 1650pro,
is the 7800 better by a big margin or very small?

please dont post about the 1950, I have tried that card and it doesn not work on mys ystem.

The 7800GS would beat the X1650 pro in almost every game, it's simply a higher performance card as the X1650 pro is like a 7600GS.

The X1650XT would trade blows with the 7800GS and IMO is the better card of the two at stock speeds. The 7800GS is a nice OC'er though. It just depends on your games. If you plan on putting a few hundred hours into Oblivion, the X1650XT would have been better. And right now cheaper too.

BTE the cards need to be AGP I forgot to mention that as well.

Totally agree.

To the OP: Yes, they're talking AGP too.
