X850 pro or X800 xt?

i have less funds than expected to get a new graphics card, (from 6600gt)

the x800xt has 16 pixel pipes but the x850 has 12. so i presume the x800xt well be better?

i have no idea which X800 series card to get :(
 
The logical step up from a 6600GT is a 7600GT, faster with more features than any X800. More money of course, but a much better card.

Unless your on AGP?
 
less funds as in how much exactly, you can buy a leadtek 7600GT for £140 and they seem to be a right bargain, as well you can get your hands on sapphire X850XT for £135

The X800XT is the quicker card.

Generally for X800 & X850 series cards:
XT is quickest
XL / Pro / GTO2 / GTO16 are about equal.
 
how many more posts do i need to get on the members market anyway? I've been helping out on these forums for months now.
 
FAQ says 250 so fair enough. Can't see anything in rules about offering to buy/sell stuff privately though, only not posting links about competitors/medical advice/warez etc. Do I class as a competitor by selling privately?
Apologies again if I'm wrong.
