Is the 6800GT still a good card anyone?

Having been away in the great white north for a while, Im WELL out of touch - everythings changed!

I dont really want to upgrade, but look forward to playing that Source game with the russian tanks (bugger my memories bad).

I got a AMD64 3400+ with it, and dont really want to have to pay for an upgrade to PCI-Express - being skint.

Will it do? or is there another 100 quidish card out there?

I thought the X800 was a weaker card than 6800 GT?

dammit!

As you can see from this The x800 pro just beats a 6800 ultra on H/L 2 lost cost.

The x1600 is around the power of both of them but it may work better at the newer games and the 512MB mem will work out better if you have a large monitor (24"+) or have 2 going 2 on the go at the same time.

The best AGP card you can get is the but has a price tag to mach at £187.

aye - well.. Just so I dont feel guilty if its just my setup

Get a second opinion.

My setup is a AMD64 3400+ with a gig of memory in 1 stick. But on that rig, the 6800 GT was defo the boy. Still... I cant afford one yet, so Im just waiting
