Hi there
Im trying to make up my mind to buy a PCI-E Grafix card --i have choices

between

powercolor Ati X700 256 mb - 3yrs warranty ($325)
powercolor Ati X800 basic 128mb -3yrs warranty ($415)

gainward geforce 6600GT 128mb- 1yrs warranty ($330)

Now mixed reviews abt x700 make it hard to set up my mind. since im in Delhi

in india , i dont have much choices here for grafix solutions. Cards are priced

too high as u can make out. i gave the prices in Standard USD for easy

reference.

I dont want to go blindly for geforce just because other people are

recommending it like anything, i know the serious Professional choices still

remain the ATI based solutions in the industry.

X800 is a little out of budget
So i'd be really greatful if u can give me some Fruitful reviews over

comparison betw x700 256mb vs. 6600GT 128mb

Also the Warranty period also pays u off in the Later stage when u wanna Sell

of the thing.

Thx alot

Have you considered the Radeon X800 XL? It offers a lot of value for money, much more than the X700/800 at least. Will cost about €300 Smile

X800-XL is my choice for the moment but as i mentioned -- there are no x800xl based cards available here at the moment-- on demand they are approx -$500 which is hefty amnt of money at the moment for me.

Well he must have bought it online if he lives in the UK, considering he paid in euros.
