i would go 4 the XFX GeForce 6800 GT, not a fan of ATI

TUNA and CAKESc both have 6800GTs and they're great for any game we have including BF2. The XFX is a good card - I have the Ultra version and couldn't fault it.

From what I've heard, the X850XT beats even the 6800 Ultra (only slightly) in all the tests. I'd go for the ATI card if I were you.

Ive bin edgin 2wards the x850 frm the reviews tht ive seen... is there any other better cards for the same price? (£200)

Is the ultra more xpensive than the gt? If it is how much more is it? jus wunderin... :)

check it.

although the ATI's have the edge over nvidias in the benchmarks
when it comes to playing games they are split 50/50
(nvidias seem to be better at larger screen sizes (1280+) when AA and AF are on)

and although neither BF2 or BHD/JO are mentioned in the tests, these games (our favorites!) were specifically written with nvidia in mind, and i firmly believe nvidia cards perfom better when playing them.

remember, not all games perform the same they are optimised for one card or another.

personally? i run a 6800 Ultra. it roxx!

Well, I have X850 XT PE..
And Im glad I bought it ...
Best card ever...

So, If I were you I would have bought the ATI card ;)

6800 Ultra is more expensive than a 6800GT. Not sure how much now - check Overclockers or similar to see what's on offer.

The Ultra is meant to be better, hence costs more, but tbh I can't see any real difference between mine and TUNA's or CAKESc.

i am saving for the new one from Nvidia, the Gforce 7800 GTX (you can even put 2 cards on top of each other, it calld SLI )

later i could buy a second one :1 (40):

[A TIN OF FEAR]

yoda mate i think to be able to put the 2 cards in you will need a motherboard that supports SLI

I could be wrong mind you its just what i read in some magazine

[A TIN OF YODAN]

i will look for that, just to be sure, but i will start with one card, and later on i might get me a new board , we'll see :-)
if i win the lottery, i get me a killer pc :1 (119):
