I would just like to see a new benchmark between the 6800 ultra with the latest forceware drivers and the X800XT with the Cat 4.7 or the 4.8's when they come out. That will finnally help me decide whether to cancel my order for my X800XT or buy the PNY 6800 Ultra from one of the fellow forum members.
Both cards are amazing there is now doubt. I like the video encoding features on the NVIDA card and the dual dvi. But ATI still seems to be outperforming NVIDIA in every other game besides Doom3 (not to say that trend will continue from what i hear they are now about neck and neck but i have no reputable source because all comparisons are with old drivers) What i want to know is how the 6800 Ultra handles normal maps compared the the X800XT PE (with ther 3dc technology) and how ATI's latest drivers will help with open GL performance. And I'd like to see how NVIDIA's latest drivers help in performance with some of the newer titles.
(Maybee The guys who run this site can do something about that, because i know i can't get both pieces of hardware as much as i'd like to and this is probubly going to be the last video card i buy.)
I'd also like to know if you guys think an Antec true 430 will power a 6800 ultra if i have 3 hard drives 2 optical drives 4 case fans two cold cathodes and an asus p4c800-e MB and a gig of corsair ull memory.
