My advice would be to wait for HL2 to come out, see how it runs on your card.. then pick a new one if necessary.

Buying now isn\'t a smart move with the next generation coming in the first half of 2004.

who says i\'m spewin bs.. XT cards are the MX cards of the DX9 series. They are the cheaper alternative. Sammy, i\'m seein red Xs

Personally i couldn\'t care less about Nvidia Vs ATI bs anymore. I\'ll get my 9800 card and be happy.

If there\'s something better for the same price, i\'ll get that.

There\'s a mouse that runs around with a scroll wheel? :eek:

It\'s cheaper yes, but it has the same features. The only difference is a slighty lower clockspeed. So it\'s hardly the "MX cards" d00d.

sammy.... Listen carefully. They are the Cheaper, slower versions of the high end cards. Just as MX were to TI. (i\'m not saying to the extent of the MX cards) So, they are the MX cards of the dx9 series. I\'m not comparing there performance to MX cards, i\'m saying they are cheaper versions like the mx cards.. Understand yet?

So the GF XT cards are slower than the MX cards?

Wonder why Tom\'s Hardware and Anandtech don\'t have any news on the FX XT\'s.

I\'m Confused here, the XT line by ATI (9800XT) is the top end card, how is the XT clocked slower, it\'s the fastest core on .15 from ATI?

Both ATI and nVidia have XT lines now. Stupid marketing from nVidia\'s side.

Yes, I understand that they are slower. They have to be to be cheaper, otherwise they\'d steal all the thunder from the most expensive cards. The thing here is, that the performance is very close to the more expensive cards and it has the SAME features. That\'s very unlike the currect MX series (which is crap compared to the Ti cards). So if people were smart they\'d buy the XT instead. Hence the reason I also showed you the benchmarks. Have you seen them yet?

Basically their XT card is the new Ti4200 - only that you\'d have to clock the TI4200 (which was easily done in most cases) and it\'d compete with the high end cards, just for a (much) cheaper price. Basically it\'s the smart buyer\'s card.

yes i saw the benchmarks.. The XT cards are still pretty pricey. here anyway. I didn\'t say they were stripped to the level of MX, i just said they\'re the cheaper version like the mx.
