x800xl runs all new games fine with high for me or a x800gt for budget , or a 6600gt or 6800gt for ps 3.0

Me and my buddy got exactly the same computer specs..
The only difference is that he got more powerfull RAM, and a x800, and I got a 6800GT..
We tried to do some testing, and found out that MY computer ran games BETTER than HIS because he was using a damn X800..
We're talking about the best x800 .. dunno what it's called .. Pro or something?
I hate you.

well the x800 and x800 pro only have 12 pixel pipelines compared to the xl's 16 and are done on the old 130 (i think ) nm technology , were the xl is on 110. they both have slower clocked memory 350 and 450 xl is 500 , and the pro has a faster core 475 , xl is 400.
splinter cell at stock speeds the 6800gt gets about a average of 5 fps more up to 1600x1200 res were there equal.
farcry the x800xl gets 7fps more up to 1280 x 1024 were its 1fps more 1600 x 1200 the 6800gt gets 6 fps more
half life 2 the x800xl is faster on all res 1600 x 1200 its 11fps quicker then 6800gt
it beats the 6800gt in 3dmark 05 by about 100 points
doom 3 the gt wins by about 10fps at high res
cheapest X800XL i could find was £167 inc vat for a gecube
cheapest 6800gt was £187 inc vat , for a oem generic model or £210 for a inno 3d
a slight overclock on the xl puts it on top in all tests except doom 3 which favours nvidia anyway. with the money you save over the gt you can get a better cooler for the gfx card and overclock it even more
edit: wow you can get a X850XT connect3d for £205 inc vat on ebuyer , or a pny 6800 ultra for £225

nvidia was the ones optimizing there drivers for 3 dmark with the lod settings on the 6xxx series as i remember. in real world games performance theres not much between the x800xl and 6800gt except in doom3 which was optimized for nvidia and half life 2 which was optimized for ati , only thing is price , for a name brand x800xl you save about £40 over a name brand 6800gt , but seeings as you can get a 6800 ultra or x850xt for that price id get either of them over the gt. i just prefer ati over nvidia theese days hence why i sold my 6800 ultra and kept the x800xl
