for gamers, which i think the majority of high end card buyers are, there is almost no bonus from AGP to PCI-ex anyway so something as simply as the rialto chip for the r520 would be a really innovative idea from ATI, if they bother to look out for me and make a agp r520 I'll be sold from nvidia to ati, and i've got a 6800 ultra

for the size of teh card, I wouldn't be suprised if AGP couldnt provide enough power... same with the 7800gtx...

actually ONE bus cannot handle 2 video cards, but a second chipset could be used to have a second video card... they would have implemented this possibility if the price wasnt going to be so big, and the performance gain minimal

Buy One Before you Knock It!

How can anyone comment on something they don't have! I used to be an nVidia Fan years ago,then nVidia didn't have anything to Compete with ATI so I switched! Now ATI's trying to catch nVidia and they can't! Their New Card is going to be a Dual slot with only 16 Pipelines and a whole lotta nothing except for Optimized Drivers there trying to use to Inflate their Performance Scores to Win over their Existing Users! ATI's a Canadian Company and they should have alot of Canadian Fans but Lately they don't Simply because their Products aren't Good Enough!
I own a MSI n7800 GTX 256Mb on an ASUS A8N SLI Mobo powered by an AMD64 3500+,and the Performance is AWESOME,along with 24 Pipelines instead of 16! How can someone Post a Comment like: nvidia sucks so bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! when you don't even own one,and Probably can't Convince your Parents to Buy you one!!! The Truth of the Matter is: nVidia's 7800 GTX is a 24 Pipeline Card and a Single slot card that Blows ATI out of the Water! You can Cry,Wine, and hate nVidia all you want,but the Fact is: nVidia's the King and Long may he Reighn!! I build Gaming Systems and my Customers would be Very Disappointed if I Recommeded something that was 2nd Grade like ATI is Now! Cry,Hate all you want but the Facts are the Fact!!
nVidia Rules!!!!

All Winers Comments Welcome!!

P/S: I own both Brands of these Cards,so I'm not being BIAS, I've Tried Both!! You should Really Research before you Post Foolish Comments! But I suppose some of you are 13 and Under,if not,Grow Up!

Unregistered user. its just spam. leave it, and mods will try to edit/delete the useless waste of bandwidth. No need to get angry over an immature 5 year old.

Grow up dude, NO ONE has benchmarked a X1800XT yet.
Looks like your parents spoil you.

And your point about "owning both cards" is extremely ridiculous, that would be like saying "I drank a pepsi 2 years ago and didnt like it so now pepsi and all their sub brands are TEH SUK!"


And stop with the double posting.

You need to calm down Bonami. Pipes are not everything when it comes to cards, no one knows how the X1800XT is going to compete with the 7800GTX. If the 7800GTX was that much faster than the X1800 I think ATI would have a more powerful solution. ATI said the X1800 is suppose to compete with the GTX, so I doubt that the GTX will obliterate the X1800. So keep your fanboy comments to yourself...

So someone can say: nVidai sucks,and it's OK! But if someone Replys to that Comment they're a Fanboy,and should Keep their Fanboy comments to theirself!! Kind of a Double Standard don't Ya Think!! That's Fine,I'll Keep my comments to Myself,so what's the Point of a Forum??
And also by my Comment of Owning Both Cards,that was Both Brands of Cards,not a 7800 and a X1800! Why would Ya buy two Cards at $650.00 +! Anyway theirs not much sense to belong to a One Sided forum!! Thanks Anyway!!

No I am not the moderator of this forum and I don't know where you got your impression.

There is nothing wrong about saying what you prefer, but you can go around saying X product sucks and Y product is the best. People who do that are fanboys. Sure I like ATI cause I have one, but I can't go say that Nvidia sucks, because I don't have one at the moment. Nvidia doesn't suck, nor does ATI, Intel, or AMD. Its personal preference, and sure tell people what you like. But don't be a ass hole about how you say it.

I did find a review on the new ATI cards.
http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/article/1813/

Check it out, see what you think.

Its not blown away but the X1800 does try and keep up. Not to mention the fact that ATI has been workin on their cards for over 4 months longer than the Nvidia did the 7800 Series. But I do hope that the ATI Performs as good as you all expect.

That Totally changes my Opinion of you!! I was only responding to some A Hole saying nVidia Sucks! I have an ATI 9800 Pro and it's an Awesome little card! I also have a Nvidia 7800 GTX which is the Best I've ever owned!! ATI's gonna try to Top it,Then Nvidia's gonna Top their's again!!It's a War that's been going on for Years,and it'll keep going on and on!! I love a Friendly Competetion among Friends,but there's a Few that are way to Serious! By the way Dan where in N.S do you Live?I'm in Bridgewater,we're from the same Place,I don't think we're supposed to be Rude to one another,so I'm Sorry for overreacting!! TTYL!! :cool:


P/S:dippyskoodlez,I know how to Spell Fair,it was part of the Response! And the Proper way to Spell Nvidia is nVidia!! Depending on which context your trying to get across!! Take your Pick!

Its fine expressing your opinions and such, but you just got to be careful how you word them. Anyways... I live in Sydney, Cape Breton. I know a couple of people down in Bridgewater, nice place.
