Maximum PC

Radeon X-800-XT platinum edition, I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has had a chance to play any current graphics intensive games using this card. <Simple question> What do you think of the card?

An XT and an XT PE is the same card in PCIE form, isn't it? I'd think the ability of anyone here running one yet is slim to none.

I still have my finger on the "buy" button for when I see the one I want available.

In a week or two my friend will have his. Unfortunately my friend has no patience and chose to pre-order from compusa.com. ATI just needs to start shipping more of the BASTARDS OUT!

Haha my friend got his at ecost.com for $470 shipped, It should be here next monday I think so if he gets it before anyone else I'll let you guys know how it goes... I should be gettin' a 6800 gt soon, I've been waiting for it to come in stock at newegg because it's cheaper, and well, I love newegg

Nope
XT and XTPE are 2 not the same. The XT PE is the faster of the 2.

both are going to cost you your soul

Thanks for realizing that as part-question Kinda mixed reports on the XT platinum out there. Now I know!

I too have a passion for newegg. SO YOU LEAVE HER ALONE!

The X800 only has 12 pipelines - The X800XT has 16 pipelines, plus it's overclocked, so it's definitely (note that it is spelled correctly) the better of the 2 cards.
