Whats a good card to replace a 6800 GT?

I can get a brand new -

MSI ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB GDDR3 AVIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-060-MS)

£252 I must say Im very tempted by this.

Can anyone tell me what this means though...

- Crossfire compatible - Master Edition ATI X1900 card required!!

Edit:

Oh its like an sli thing yeah?

That is a great card & a great price too.
Yes, Crossfire compatible = ATI version of SLI.
 
Cheers all, I have bought the MSI ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB GDDR3 AVIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-060-MS) - £252.

Im not really fussed about dx10 cards and they prolly wont be out until the end of the year anyhow. This should be quite a leap from my humble 6800GT which ain no slouch by the way. I seen some comparisons and its just frightning. :)

Only thing that worrys me is I only have a 400w psu. Oh well I wanted a modular one anyhoo. :p
 
At the mo I'm gonna have to just use my laptop. I have sold most of the stuff out of my desktop.

Its a athlon xp 2500+ barton /512mb ram /60 gig hard drive etc, it'll do until I get the conroe. ;)
 
Oh also this laptop has a radeon 9700 pro mobile in it, but I prolly wont be doing any gaming with it though. Just gonna have to drool over my new x1900xt for a month.. paah. ;)
