i'm pretty sure those cards are in different classes so the X800 is a lot better |

6600gt is in the mid range(x600 x700 are the ones in the same range, and are beat)
x800 for whatever reason are in the high end set(6800gt/u/nu, x800pro/xt/xtpe x850) |

Yes. they are. I meant the 6800 GT. Ime not gona get either one though. Ime nowhere near happy with the benchmarks done by the 6800 series and x800 series. Ill wait for the next generation PCI-E cards to come out.
I run a Geforce FX that benches almost as high as the 6600.
So Ime alright for now. Thanks for you input though. |

Ime nowhere near happy with the benchmarks done by the 6800 series and x800 series. don't base anything on the benchmarks at all, cause there is more to the card then just was 3ddork says, there is better shader support on the 6800's and the x800's just pump out allot of fps.
and the fx's are not completely dx9 cards, they run an emu to run it so you are incorrect in saying that the fx series benches anywhere near these cards. in a 1:1 comparison. |

I know people who have 6800's and I know people who have X800's. Both are happy with their purchase. I myself have an X800XT PE by Saphire and I am very pleased with my performance I get with it.
Either card will do the job just great. Buy whichever one you can get at the lowest price.
