6800 ULTRA or X850 XT ??

(Excuse me for my english, im coming from germany)

Hello, i want to buy a new graphic card for my amd64 3200+, Msi k8Tneo FISR ,1GB Corsair ...

Recently i sold my old Ati Radeon 9800 XT at Amazon, so i have enough money to buy a newer ones.

But i dont know if i should take the ati x850 xt or the 6800 Ultra. I saw this BFG 6800 Ultra, which is relativ cheap, it

has 425 Mhz of Graphix and 1200 MHZ of RAM and the gamers choice Award. A very good Card for a unbelievable

price.., i think..!! I want to play my favourite Game Battlefied 2, when it comes out with all details enabled..

So i would be very appreciated if someone could help me with my Choice.

Daniel,

Heh, hope someone helps you, but, next time, try to post in the Hardware section, not the BF section ;) No hard feelings, as you are from another language...

Hey master, i have the Ati X850XT 256mb and it's a great card and it will handle battlefield 2 no problem, BF2 won't just require a good card though, make sure you have 1GB of ram aswell

. Both cards are good but if i were you i'd go ATI, as we all know ati rule, don't be fooled by ' runs best on nvidia ' by all means that's just nvidia paying them more than ati for that to be said

sory for double posting, i dont know how to copy and paste when i press the quote button on this forum

Yep 24 pipelines. Most people thinks it's 32 pipes but as far as i'm informed (and my Informers are top notch...all trained profesionals).
Well, It's not like I know the different of 12 and 16 pipelines so it's great to get more of it
