Club 3D Radeon X800XL PCI Express @ Viperlair

“Performance from the X800XL was fantastic, quite happily keeping pace with our X850XT PE in many tests, although the highest resolutions and heavy AntiAliasing/Anisotropic filtering did slow it down slightly in comparison.”

This card is honestly the best bang for the buck. There’s just no better with a retail value of around $299. Used 6800GTs are going for much more than that. While we’re on topic of X800 XL and the pricing, check out Tech Report with some ATI price guides.
