Ati 420 Vs. Geforce 6800 Comparison

The matchup

 

Thoughts anyone?

I've read countless reviews...and the ATI cards are definately the winner...but they all hint about Nvidia's return to the table as being a damn good one.... One that eventually might lead to them recovering from a few years of dispair and unseating ATI from it's current Throne.

Yeah, basically what Fates said. Nvidia sure has made a comback. But, just comparing these cards, it seems that the X800 Pro has just a hair lower performance as the 6800 Ultra, yet it is $100 cheaper and has better graphical rendering. So for at least this lineup, I think the X800 Pro will be the winner (sales wise), even over the PE. I can't wait to get my hands on one...

 

I've also read at tomshardware.com that ATI will most likely not produce the x800 for very long, and will go ahead and put out their R480/R5xx series in the near future. I hope Nvidia has something else up their sleeves too.
