Its faster than the regular versions.

Ya, especially considering it retails for less than half of that. I don't think the person who posted that auction will see his $1100.

I just bought an ATI all in wonder and a 2nd monitor. I thought I was spending a lot this week on my computer and I got bought for like $500. Now I feel like I should go ahead and buy something else, lol.

Ahh, then that person made out like a bandit.



I'd rather pay less than $500 for one that did make it to retail.

http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...122-196&depa=1

(MUCH better than eVGA, btw.)

Core: 400MHz, Clock: 1.1GHz (Compared to your 450MHz/1.2GHz). With a heatsink like this you can easily overclock it to far beyond what you just paid over a grand for.

Haha.

Its a regular 6800 Ultra. DarkJedi got Extreme Edition which is faster.

x800 Platinum is crap

Geforce 6800 Ultra can be run in dual mode http://www.nvidia.com/page/sli.html

Actually, if you look at some of the more recent benchmarks, the ATI X800 Platinum Edition is gaining ground on Nvidia's cards after a couple of driver updates.

Just wait until Half Life 2 comes out, we'll see who has the better benchmarks

I don't think that you know much about video cards because if you did, you'd know that the ATI Radeon 9700 Pro and the Radeon 9800 Pro whipped the floor with Nvidias cards when they came out, so they couldn't suck too bad.

I'll admit that the current cards from both companies are pretty comparable, you couldn't go wrong either way. I used to be an Nvidia guy, but once the Radeon 9700 Pro came out, ATI won me over and now I have my ATI X800 Platinum Edition and I couldn't be happier.

I know that someone is gonna bring up the ATI driver issues saying how they don't update their drivers. That was in the past and they surely learned their lesson. If you look at their website driver history, you'll see that they've been releasing new drivers almost monthly.

You must have just wasted a bunch of money on an ATI card, i'm sorry...

x800 platinum is expensive as fuck, and it still gets smoked by a simple geforce 6800 (not even ultra) in benchmarks

you = owned
