and which company's(XFX i presume)
I have the XFX 6600GT PCI-E. Overclocked of course, 580 core/1.2ghz memory, soon to put a waterblock on it too
Two FX5200's? And we thought concorde had gone forever!
The 6800Ultra is meant to be on a par with the X800XT, so how it beats an X850XT I don't know. Perhaps in Doom 3 because the nVidia's are better in OpenGL, but for the majority you'll find that the X850 series is the elite.
Slight revision:
X850XTPE > X850XT > X800XT=6800U > X800XL=6800GT > X800Pro=6800 > 6800LE > 6600GT > 9800Pro > 9700Pro > others.
I don't think the 6600vanilla is worth it, for the price you could get a 9800/9700 which would be better. Didn't put in the X800XTPE because it's hardly been available.
The X850's are the cream of the crop right now, the 6800/6600's are good for SLi (although I wont bother to be honest with SLi) and the 9800/9700's are still fantastic cards. Although I head there was a passively-cooled X700XT that was released (I think it was in Custom PC mag?) that looked pretty good, although I thought ATi had stopped making X700XT's, only X700Pro's.
Anyway, not a GeForce4 MX 4000
