What is the current fastest video card in AGP form ? Need a upgrade from my Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB. Thanks guys.
 
X850XT PE if you don't care much about the SM3.0/HDR features in FarCry / Splinter Cell or play Riddick, Doom3 (or plan to play games based on the engine) or flight sims (IL2, PF, LOMAC)

6800U if you do.
 
For Nvidia it's the Geforce 6800 Ultra Extreme Edition and for ATI it's the X850 XT P.E.
 
My opinion as a 6800GT owner at Ultra speeds. X850XT is the fastest by a slim margin without overclocking. The 6800GT/Ultra overclocks beautifully to beat most everything by the slimmest of margins. Yes, the 6800 does support some features that the X850XT do not, but that is a toss.

Buy whatever is cheaper and/or more available near you.
