Card advice

[teb468]

ok, so i'm not interested in knowing what company is better or all the flame war stuff, but i would like to know which card would be a better buy at the moment, the x800 XT or the higher end 6800's (i'm not really sure which is the best version of the 6800)? i'm not worried about which has the better performance because frankly, its going to be way better than the crappy Geforce 5600 i have now. i'm more worried about the support each card will have for new versions of Dx and stuff like that.

Can you actually buy any of these in your area? Check wich one is available and check the price.
The Geforce6800GT is nice, its somewhat cheaper than the ultra and the only difference is the clock speed. The Gt feature the full 16pipes wich makes it a pretty good buy.

So check the availabilty and the prices and come back to us.

Asus P4P800DX, P4C 2.6ghz@3.25ghz, 2X512 OCZ PC4000 3-3-3-8, Leadtek FX5900 w/ FX5950U bios@500/1000, 2X30gig Raid0

well availability isn't big problem since i'm getting it over the internet, just have to wait for things to get in stock. and baiscally i won't spend more than 600 on one, but the cheaper the better as long as i can get something better than a x800 pro if thats able to be done.

So you want to preorder... That's always a bad idea.

well i'm more concerned with figureing out which one to buy right now, seeing as how i'm not getting one for at least another month

This is a good deal I think on a 6800GT that's not ready till 7/10 but you said you're looking at buying in a month anyway.
