Hi All

Just wondering when this would be due for release

(PowerColor ATI Radeon X850 XT 256MB DDR3 VIVO TV-Out/DVI (AGP) - Retail (GX-058-PC)

and secondly what would handle bf2 better, the above or a 6800gs.

My current spec of my PC is

pentium 4 3.0g
2g of corsair ram
5200 fx graphics card
160gb hard drive

Thanks in advance for your help.

Eh? That card has been out for a while, i have one i bought a few weeks ago ^^

I've never had a 6800gs, but from what i read around the forums, the x850xt is the better card.

Welcome to the forums.

As above the x850 XT is better, and will handle BF2 better.

I think he means whens it due back in stock, as its on pre-order at the moment, hopefully if Gibbo comes on again today then he'll be able to let you know, as he deals with all the cards at OcUK.

Hi there

The PowerColor X850 XT AGP that are on pre-order arrive into stock 1st/2nd week February and its the last ever batch of X850 XT AGP cards so get yours pre-ordered now to avoid missing out....
