upgrading from a FX 5900XT lol which got 460 3dmark05 lol

which one is best for the money looking at a max of about £300 cheaper the better means i can get better memory..

thanks for replies...
 
i didnt even realise they made agp 7800's but im upgrading to PCX :D thought it was about time lol.. thanks for your halp. is there a thread with some 3d mark scores for that card?
 
undecided... does anyone know of some benchmarks with theses 2 cards??? or is it that close its down to preference or cost?>
 
that does make sense. the 50 i save could go elsewhere on the build... i might go for the DFI Lanparty Ultra D board???

spec as follows then:
X2 4400
dfi ultra-d
x1800xt 256
g.skill hz pc4000

Does that look okay??
*getting the board and the card first... other stuff will wait till next payday
 
well after all of this ive decided to get a X1900XT lol i know it way over my budget but i dont care.. it seem to be the best card sub £400 and the only thing beating it is the 7800GTX 512... lol
 
i will try... :) it'll probly bottle neck till i get my new processor... but i might just wait till am2 comes out to get a new cpu??? but should still kick my 5900XT lol with a 3d mark 05 score of .... wait for it.......... 460 lol..

cant wait... thanks for all the help
 
im GETTING the HIS Excalibur ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB GDDR3 AVIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-048-HT) £352.44
 
my acer will do 1440x900??? but i think your right i wont use all the power of the 1900 with my small res monitors so i might just stick to the 1800 which is £120 cheaper i think. for the 256. that should run my 1440 and 1280 smooth??? with everything full
 
x1800xt it is then... my final upgrade will be:

Asus A8N-E nForce4 Ultra (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard (MB-088-AS)
Connect3D ATI Radeon X1800 XT 256MB GDDR3 AVIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-044-CO)
Hiper HPU-4K580-MK Type R 580W Modular ATX2.2 PSU - Black UV (CA-005-HP)

and in a few month a 4400 and XMS3200 ram :D or whatever is out then lol
 
i just wanted to make sure i get the right card when spending all of my savings... im at college and only work in the summer so i dont really have much spare cash.. :D
