I was thinking of getting a 256MB card with one of these chipsets. How do
they compare to one another? System's used mostly for gaming. Cheers.

Two tidbits:

1) The 6800 GT has Shader Model 3.0 support... the X800XL does not.
That hasn't been very important, but it will become more important as
time goes by (Age of Empires III is the latest game that is about to be
released that supports Shader Model 3.0)

2) If you decide on the 6800 GT, get this one (not necessarily from Best
Buy... just that model):

a what ? 6800 ? no brainer ATI x800XL !
compare ? why ? just get the ATI x800XL

oops crossposted didn't you.

here.

okay so the 6800 exists so we ATI'ers can just run over, KO, dominate, crush
(no deposit no return) the NVIDIA's playing PVP servers in online games. So
uh.. maybe you want to purchase the 6800 ? okay. see you online.

hope this helps,
