I want to buy a good PCI express video card in the $100 to $160 range (canadian). I was looking at this one XFX GeForce 6800XT 256MB PCI-E and the ATI Radeon X800xl. Does anyone know which one is better for gaming? I want to be able to run current games such as Ghost Recon advanced Warfighter,FEAR, NFSMW and CS Source at a playable framerate with medium or high graphics. I have a AMD AM2 3500+ with HT and 1GB of PNY OPTIMA memory (2 512MB Sticks with gold contacts) the memory is DDR2. Thanks in advance to anyone that helps.
Ok.Here one in your price range that will smoke any game on the market at the highest setting's.After rebate it's $125.99 it's also got great reviews as your can see.The ones you listed will both do the trick but aren't as good and are priced similar to the ones I listed. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102505 Here's another killer deal at $105.99 after rebate. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102688
