I know a lot of u fellas always recommend the 6800 GT over the X800 XL for example.. My question to u is, how many of you guys have actually "seen" both of these cards in action.. I know guys like Beedubaya must have since he's had a tough time with his X800 pro card.
But it seems like almost "everyone" ALWAYS says, get the 6800 GT quite passionately.. But, have u guys actually "seen" both cards in action too see if the 3.0 features are very significant?.. or is this a classic case of Tech Forum "group think"?..
One guy with a [high post count/good reputation] says something, and everyone else jump on the band wagon and follows .. There have been other instances of this as well.. But no point in going into all those.
I've always been opinionless when it came to the subject of video cards.. Other than maybe saying the 6600 GT is a great bang for the buck..
Anyways post away.. This was not meant to be an insult or anything of that sort.. I was just curious..
