sigh

so IF i am to buy an X800 Pro or 6800GT, which one should i get?
ATI or NVIDIA?

i know this is gonna turn into one of those threads again but just btwn these 2 cards, which one wins?

no biased opinions please
i guess ill have to investigate a little more when HL2 comes out as well

6800GT is faster(slightly) in almot every game. it has 16 pipelines while the x800 Pro has 12, which is why you can get the x800 Pro considerably cheaper than the GT. The extra pipelines help greatly in next gen games starting with far cry. its your pick really, do you want an excellent video(GT) card or an above average video card(x800).. also dont forget that if you are a video editor stay away from the 6800 series. I just sold my 6800GT cause its too much power for my cpu.. so I'm considering an x800 Pro.
