Whats the diff. between all of the X800 XT cards?

I am going to buy a new x800 XT video card but have no idea which one to buy. Which one would be the best buy for gaming and everything else (price doesnt matter)?

Thanks

I find most cards are almost always the same, the difference is usually in the bundle (a few exceptions are the stock OCd cards).

So any of them would be a good bet? Which would you recommend? I was looking at the Gigabyte version (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...125-139&depa=0) due to its high rating from NewEgg.

The Asus version of the X800 XT is definetly the best choice to get, provided its in your budget. other than that they are all good, Personally i bought the Sapphire X800XT P.E , Sapphire has an amazing reputation of not skimping out on the bundles, They also INCLUDE A OVERCLOCKING utility with their card, now thats trust in your hardware if you ask me. The asus version also has a nice bundle, not to mention a webcam for there game face technology, and blue led lights, would have gone for that card if i had the money just for the blue lights

Why settle for an x800 XT when you can get an x850 XT PE...I've seen them on eBay and have wondered where the sellers got their hands on them.

x850PE is only 25 or 50MHz faster than an x800XT PE, it's a waste of money

But any idea about the Gigabyte version? I have also heard the HiS version is great due to the intricate cooling part within the card.

I just visited ebay and their only $50 more than the highest priced x800 XT card on new egg. Whats a better buy: the x850 PE or the x800 XT for about $150 less?

I'd say the x800 is a better buy, and gigabytes model looks ok, HIS cards are a lot more expensive because of the Ice II cooler

The X800XL is prolly a more financially sound choice.

Except the stock OC is often very little and the cost jump is usually not worth it (some exceptions like the V9999GE exist tho)

God yeah but quite possibly worth it

... some of the 'gamer' cards by Sapphire feature Silencer heatsinks are pretty nice for cooling too

So the Sapphire or the HiS version would be better than the Gigabyte?
