Not fanboy, I don't even own an ATI card. ATI = Canadian, so support that fucknig economy. I'm a nationalist, not a fanboy.[/quote:1b684]lol,gg biggrin:

6800 is a nice card, if you got the $$$

im normally an ATI fanboy but the x800xt is too pricey at the moment

WTF dont you have a 9800pro??? wtf? save your cash for when you actually need a new card.

Well, i'm sceptical about the new cards from Nvidia. My buddy went from an ATI 9800 pro to the Nvidia 6800 GT. He said the Nvidia card sucked and only gained a few fps in DOOM 3. He took the card back and the guy in the store said the same thing....that people were returning the 6800 GT in favor of the X800 Pro. I guess thats why he had (5) 6800 GT's in stock vs no X800 Pro's in stock.

i dont agree with your statement. running a high end card has alot to do with a properly configured rig...not to mention the horsepower to get the full gfx card capability. id be curious to see there system specs and what drivers they use. ive a mean fast rig cfged for COD and Doom3 right now...but when i play MOH it doesnt run as smooth as my old card did...i believe the drivers are the issue but im not gonna downgrade when im raping nubs anywyas... sleeping:

Also depends a lot on clearing out the old gfx drivers etc. Most will just run driver clean but imo if you switch from nvidia to ati or vice versa you're better doing a format.

He's got a nice up to date system and he did a reformat when he installed the Nvidia card.Believe me, this guy knows what he's doing with a PC. He also thinks it's a driver issue.
