Best Brand of 6800 GT?

[The Amish Kid]

yeah well now im not so sure about the 6800 GT. I just read a review of the ATI Radeon X800 XT Platinum Edition and in cnet's benchmarks it was beating the 6800 Ultra.

Here's the review:

I'm not sure if there would be a big difference between ATI's card and Sapphire's card, if there isnt this card is looking a lot better then the 6800 GT. This seems like too good of a deal though because everywhere else I see it it's like $400

[Shrug].... go for it. If you don't like it, you could always resell it for more.

i have a eVGA and i love it...tho i don't know how to compare cuz its my first

im gonna go with the x800 XT PE, seems like a better deal to me.

 

[pffft?]

No, its not.

6800gt is better. eVGA and Bfg Tech Are the Two Best Companies, Winfast also has some good cooling. Your best bet with the psu is skyhawk/eagle with dual 12v. @ 520w, thats your best bet.

the x800xt pe is actually better in benchmarks than the 6800ultra so spend a few more bucks

i have an evga and it works really well and i have it overclocked pretty high so im happy with it

like someone else said it scores just as high as a 6800 ultra. But I found it for like a $150 cheaper then a ultra

EDIT: Besides I already said I didn't want to get a BFG 6800 GT. I dont want to spend like $100 more on that card when it is just as good or worse then the x800 xt pe. And I dont get how you think a x800 xt pe for $280 isnt a good deal. Every where else they are close to $400
