Comparing AGP Cards

[mknawabi]

How is this card compared to an X850 Pro?

http://www.buy.com/retail/product.a...m=202211950&Type=PE&Category=Comp&dcaid=17379

the final price after tax and shipping is 195. At newegg, i can get the x850 for about 170.

I like this card because, twice the memory, SM 3.0, and a newer core.

(Heres the x850 Pro: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102606)

The X850 Pro will be faster. Compare the cards here. More memory doesnt always mean better...especially on a budget card.

Your best bet is to get x800xt AIW for about $160..

Faster than x1600 pro or x850pro...

Im guessing the 7800GS is faster than all of the above?

get the x800xl, I hear there is a good deal on those.. and you get a full 16 pipes.

Yeah, i just did a gpureview comparison, and..well.. holy shit.

It doesnt have PS 3.0, but on an AGP system, i cant really get that without spending 300$+

Thanks everyone! you really helped me out alot + saved me a crapload of money.

Plus, MCE2005 Compatibility just made me cream myself.
