u can get 6600GT for much cheaper price, and it is better than X600

You could also go for a 6800, it peforms much like a 6600GT and can be unlocked to a 6800GT if I'm not mistaken.

Go for EVGA, I don't like GIGABYTE

If you got the money you should go for this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130283

If you have AGP go for a 6600GT or a 6800GS, if you have PCI-E, go for the 6800 or the 7600GT.

Like the others said, **** NO.

Go with a 6800 GS for around $150 - $200. Much better performance.

if you want an ATI card, go for an x800 series or better

Don't get any thing from the X800 series (except the X800 GTO2) because:

1) bad drivers
2) only has SM 2.0
3) poor price/performance ratio (again with the exception of the GTO2)
4) geforce 6 cards are better overall

A 6600GT will kick the X600XT all over the place.

Even though the X800GTO2 is a decent card because it can be unlocked to a X800 PE, it still only supports SM 2.0 and it doesn't fix the bad drivers. Go for a 6600GT or a 7600GT.
