Actually imho the 6800GS is right now the best bang for your buck. My buddy just bought one, it OC'd straight to 500/1200mhz and he cracked 6000 in 3dmark05 with a mild cpu overclock of a 3200+ and a gig of budget Kingston ram. Not bad for $279CDN, not sure if ATI has that kind of bang for its buck. Could be wrong though but i havent found an example otherwise.

tough. a 6800GT has a lower score in 3DMark, it outperforms a 6800GS.
so, only 3DMaork scores dont say everything.
but yes, it is a nice caRd

I heard nvidia is better, but they are more expencive,
I think its because of the sli ready,
um.. now crossfire version from ati is out, I am trying out x850 crossfire.
+ its much cheaper than 7800 sli...

Obviously you dont know much about video cards, what is your reasoning for why Nvidia cards are better?

well, I have posted an argument saying which is better, between ati crossfire,and the sli video cards.
the results concluded that sli has been out longer, and while crossfire has been just realised.
Therefore sli has more experience over double video cards usage.

Your lost arnt you? The thread isnt whether SLI or Crossfire is better, its whether Nvidia or ATI are better. Almost 70-80% of the people on this forum still use single cards and thats why this thread was originally made..to see who prefers what. For example, best bang for the buck, best performance in game, greatest overclocking ability, greatest results in benchmarking software, etc.

no sir, you dont know much about video cards either. all you did was post because you were offended at what he said. You think your 850 is amazing, but havent come to the fact that nVidia makes much better cards, is more reliable, and is also there to release everything ahead of the ballgame

Actually FOOL, Charles Lee learnt everything he knows about video cards from me...we know eachother in real life. BTW who do you think you are saying I think my x850xt is amazing? im returning the shit cause it overheats, im going nvidia, just like when i had my old fx5500. Dont talk shit Coyote when you cant back it up.

P.S Charles lee has a x850xt too
