Ati X800
If you are looking for a nice card with quite a substantial overclock window then I can highly recommend one of these cards. If you can get a VIVO enabled card one can flash the bios to achieve X800XT performance (or if you can somehow get your hands on an X800XT card somewhere...
). Otherwise the X800 Pro (which I am harping-on at the monent) is a very capable card. I haven't benchmarked this or anything but I get 60fps (+/-2fps) in Doom3, 1280x1024, HQ, AA4x at 100Hz on my monitor and it is stunning. I'm using the 4.7 Catalyst drivers (un-optimized for DOOM3) and just can't frickin' wait for HL2 and GR2, among other games and mods to come. If you're not necessarily buying (upgrading to) a card specifically catering to the DOOM engine then it is my opinion that you must consider a new ATI card. I just don't frickin' believe how this looks and performs in DOOM3, un-optimized, very conservatively overclocked with ATITool... B=====D |
