Heh, I want to buy an X800XT, I currently have an AMD 2600XP and a 9800Pro. Is it worth all that money to upgrade? Will my CPU extremely limit the X800XT to the point where it's just a little better then my 9800Pro?

Basically, do I have a good enough CPU to run the X800XT powerhouse, and is upgrading from a 9800Pro worth it or should I stick with it since it does play most new games pretty well?

Any help would be great!
 
I have GF4 Ti4800 and waiting for new 512mb cards to come out ..do the same ;)

(or at least wait for the new NVIDIA pci-x to come out so that you get one 256 card and then buy another one in the future and use SLI to link both and you will have a 512mb video card and maybe with better performance than any 512 mb single card ;) )
 
LMAO! Nice sig there Tornado ;) Thanks for the help! Oh and Solid, I've heard you talk about the 512 cards a lot, I'll consider it, but they're not for a while.
 
you should really upgrade your processor before you go for the big cards.
 
or a good overclocked barton, kinda like my sig one won't really limit it.
a 3.6ghz+ P4 would be equiv.
 
I have a AMD2800 and had a 9800pro. I just got a 6800GT and it has made a huge difference for me. My 3DMark 03 score doubled and games are running so well at high settings I cant believe it. So yes it is worth it to upgrade at least to a 6800GT anyway. :D I was thinking about upgrading my CPU but seeing what a boost I have with this card I'm gonna wait.
