I was considering the XFX GeForce 6800 Extreme XT (pci-e) on TigerDirect for only $100. This looks like a great deal to me, but I wanted to see if u guys had any better alternatives for the same price range. ($100 ~ $130)
Well, it has 256 MB GDDR3, 256-bit memory, so its pretty good in regards to memory. I was also planning on unlocking some pixel pipelines, but if u guys say I can get those better cards for about the same price, that sounds like a better deal. Do these already have 16 pipelines unlocked? That would definitely beat the 8 pp in the 6800
Well, I don't think my budget will allow for a 7600GT, as much as I would like it, so how would the 7600 or 7600GS fare? Also, the X850s are insanely priced for such an old card. Since DX10 will come out soon, i'm hoping my next card will last well into the DX10 era.
