Its not that its not worth it really, the industrys just forcing everyone into it, agp8x is nowhere near its limits yet, nvidia with their sli want to transition to pci-e and ati has a multi board setup coming in a few months which again will require pci-e. far as i know ati and nvidia are doing one more "high end" graphics card release then theyre gonna keep the high end cards strictly pci-e.

Gddr-3

You sure its being sold for that cheap? x850xt? Thats like £160 or so which is dirt cheap for a top of the line video card, my x800 was like £380 or so, over $500.
Yeah we got it on sale for 200 dollars. eek:
That doesn't sound right. The x700 pci-e is going for $200 and the x800 agp is selling for $400.

[quote:4df40]No, ATI has not cancelled built by ATI RADEON X850 products. When allocating products, we prioritize our partners first (our board partners, our retail and e-tail partners and our OEM partners) followed by our own ati.com store (note that the ati.com store is just one place to purchase built by ATI cards). When we have a product that is highly sought after, like the RADEON X850 XT, this can cause a delay in shipping product out to our ati.com customers. In this instance we felt that our ati.com customers could get the product they wanted faster from one of our partners, so we advised them of stores that have the RADEON X850 available and cancelled their ati.com order so they could freely purchase the card elsewhere. For customers that wished to continue with a purchase from ati.com, we made a special offer available to them to thank them for their patience. Hope that helps clarify. Have a good weekend.
