| the 6800 reigns supreme right now...unless you enable AA/AF @ higher resolutions. really tho, i had some words @ fragapolooza with the gigabyte rep...wait for thier 6800..higher speeds than stack and a lof profile heatsink...the stock 6800 will take 2 pci slots.
the x800 Platunum with 16 pipes is the FASTEST card period...but low low chip yeild have led to a price exceeding 1300 US if you want one right right now.
personally i bought a 9800pro that i knew was and under volted XT and flashed the XT bios @ lower than stock XT speeds to the card.....my $500 card now performs like a $800 card....
but if you really are smart you'll wait until september when all the new stuff come out and you'll get a pci-x card that WILL be faster than agp for a lower price than agp as september is when the push is to begin. As well, there is a big firmware update coming for pci-x that will start to use the 16x pci-x that will give the faster perormance that the current 4x/8x/12x pci-x gives
