x1600 Pro vs x1800 GTO

x1800 GTO is better but x1600 Pro isn`t bad...what are you thinking about price droping in future? im a normal guy and i don`t have much money and in next 2 -3 months I buy a new PC...

then i think about 7600 gt

Don't buy either of them The X1900 is compatible with GPU acceleration which will multiply the performce of your cpu by 5 times. The x1950 pro has this ablity that neither of the other two cards have. WAIT. The X1950 Pro will come down in price after Christmas . Here is an article from Stanford University about what you can do with GPU acceleration http://folding.stanford.edu/FAQ-ATI.html. this design is most effective with the AMD opteron because it uses HTT. on Intel you have a northbridge in the way. This is the first variation of AMD's Torrenza archtecture which will render Dual and Quadcore obsolete because they are too energy inefficient for large uses and the measly 150,000 cpu's that go into the enthusiast market will not support the engineering and manufacturing expense of these designs.
I retired in June as director of engineering at Sandia Nati0onal Labs which provides the supercomputer support for Los Alamos National Labs. The future is single core cpu's with accelerators either GPU's or dedicated Accelerators like the IBM Cell chip. http://www.supercomputingonline.co [...] ?sid=11894
In 64 bit operation like Vista these pairs are 2.5 times faster than any quad core and 5 times faster than a dual core.
