Best PCI-E Card For ~$180

Radeon X1950 PRO


Codename: RV570, 90-nanometer technology
36 Pixel shaders, Eight Vertex shaders, 12 Texture units, 12 Raster Operator Units
256 bit external memory bus (512-bit internal ring bus)
575 MHz core, 690-MHz DDR (1280 MHz effective) Memory

The X1950 PRO is similar to the X1900 GT, the main difference being that it is not based on the X1900 XT, but a whole new and less power-hungry core.

The card's main competition is the 7900 GS, which it soundly beats in almost every benchmark.

I have already seen brand-new X1950 PROs for as little as $165 on Newegg. At that price this card is an absolutely incredible deal.
Best PCI-E Card For ~$250: None

I agree with Labbby here if I was gonna spend around 200 on a card right now I would chose the 1950 hands down (even if ATI did make a deal with the devil.... but hey it must have been a good deal ! lol)
