ATI RADEON X800 PRO Shootout (AGP)

[Synth]

" Hardware Zone has published a shootout on the ATI Radeon X800 Pro graphics cards. Slightly more than a half a year after its launch, the ATI Radeon X800 XT Platinum Edition is still the highest performing product on the AGP front. Although every ATI graphics card vendor has a model based on this VPU, limited quantity and availability have made it a craving product for the ardent enthusiasts with deep pockets. Today the situation has improved, but it is still not available in quantities like its sibling. Right from the start, the Radeon X800 PRO was a much more widely distributed SKU and is easily available from all your favorite vendors anytime off the shelf. Equipped with 256MB DDR3 frame buffer, a 256-bit memory interface, 12 rendering pipelines, six geometry engines, the Radeon X800 PRO is the foremost high-end AGP product shipping in mass volume. "

The 6800GT is a good bit faster for most games, and also shipping in mass volume at the same price point... X800 pro is still a great card though .

most important and scary question....HOW MUCH?                    

[TriniXaeno]

lol @ how much (obviously a man ain't read de article)

It has all the pricing info boy, click de link!

Way @ the low temps of the 6800's.

I never expected them to be that cool. The ATI cards run 30% hotter. Ouch!

Definitely could do without any additional firebreathing dragons in my case. Especially if you're talking Small Form Factor (SFF) cases like the Shuttles.
