On Newegg right now a X1800XT 512 is $509.00, a 7900GTX is $429.00. Case closed, GTX kicks XT512's ass

1920 is a higher resoution.......... EVERYTHING SEEMS SMALLER.....[/QUOTE


what moniter do you have? widescreen?

1792x1344 is higher resolution end of story, and calculations would show you this.

My screen shot tells you what monitor I am running at the moment.

That's because ATi quit making them, the core cost to much to make, the 1900GT was supposed to replace them. It failed it doing that, now they are releasing the X1950PRO to do that.

Exactly! The extra $90 for an X1800XT 512Mb isn't worth the few FPS increase...so you just wasted money, when you could've gotten a 7900GTX, 7900GTO, or even the X1800XT 256Mb, which performs the same as the 512Mb.

But still if you are going to purchase one or the other, which is the only use I can see of the thread, then the GTX would win. I mean come one here, we are comparing a Z28 to a Trans am here, both are ultra fast, so who cares?

Yeah...if you have a 7900GTX getting more than acceptable framerates at 1920x1200, and also an X1800XT also getting more than acceptable framerates at 1920x1200, would you care? No! But this kid would though!

Half-life 2 is steam based, steam based games are always better in ATI cards while Open GL games are better in nVIDIA cards.

anyone still believe 1920x1200 is higher res than 1792x1344? multiply both numbers to get the amount of pixels per res,you will see from common sense 1792x1344>1920x1200. just different aspect .

im downloading half life 2 lost coast now to take some pictures, show x1800xtpe whips 7900 gtx's ass in that also.

The architecture matters more than Paper Specs IMO. Look at the Core 2 Duo series for CPU, the E6300 is only 1.86Ghz, but it beats Pentium D's, even though some of the Pentium D's have better Paper Specs! It's the architecture that matters.

That's your problem kid, you just bench, no play at all. There's no point in having that card when all you're gonna do with it is to prove to some kids online that it's better. You're the one who's wasting your time here.
