Looking to get a new VGA card to replace my 7800GT as shortly I am going to get a 20" widescreen monitor and want something with a bit more kick to it.

I'm strongly learning towards the x1800XT 512 or the x1900 XTX but not sure which one to get, whats the performance differences like between the 2? Wanna go ATI this time as i'm just not that impressed with NV IQ in games and really want to be able to whack my settings to max as much as possible to enjoy the better quality.

So I guess my question is, which one is better value for money, the x1900 XT/X or the 1800XT? and can I install a vf700 onto either of these cards? (or a vf900 when they are released) as I like my silence.

To be honest looking at the scores they both achieve in 3d mark 05 they don't seem all that far apart considering the price differences. I'll be gaming at 1650x1050 if it helps any.

Cheers,
