Well I take all that with a grain of salt...on slide 3 they compare a X1800XT 256MB to the 7900GT. Why? The X1800XT 256MB may be cheaper but it does not perform better than the 7900GT, then on slide 4, they suddenly compare the X1800XT 256MB to a EOL part, the 7800GT. The 7900GT costs the same as the 7800GT, but has a much better performance the 7800GT and the X1800XT 256MB.
Then they are taking a X1800GTO which is basically not shipping anywhere (a few exceptions...the UK...I wonder why they took UK prices
![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](https://tpucdn.com/forums/data/assets/smilies/tongue-v1.gif)
...) It is available at
Ebuyer for 180 Pounds, the 7600GT goes for 150 Pounds at Ebuyers
here. 30 Pounds is a lot of money considering it si 20% of the total price of the card.
Oh and on slide 3: The Prices:
X1900XTX costs 379 Pounds
here and a 7900GTX starts at 363 Pounds
here great so the X1800GTO is in stock there, but not in Germany/Austria...but the 7900GTX is in stock in Germany but not in the UK...so what?
Don't trust ATI or NVIDIA with these slides..both try to scew them to their advantage...this is what I would call propaganda material *G*. Both have trouble shipping certain parts, both do not have a one on one card lineup for every price/performance point.
read the reviews, the tests from trusted websites...and make your own decision, whats best for you...
cheers
