and dragon do you have a PCI Express slot in your computer???? Im guessing not but a better option would be to get the 6800.. its a better/cheaper card and your paying alot for little with the X800XT, sure itll PWN the 6800 but who cares about only getting 140 fps and not 160, and itll cost you 200 $+ then the 6800 (even the vanilla one is fine, just plain ole Nvidia 6800 GT

www.ncix.com

Find the card your talking about on there.

I'm getting the ATi X800XT PE, it is listed as $799.99 CAD, but I can price match it down to $699.99.

4 BFG GEFORCE 6800 OC AGP8X 128MB DDR VGA DVI S-VIDEO OUT VIDEO CARD RETAIL B (BFG6800OC) $389.85

thats kina it

and this is what you want

5 ATI RADEON X800 XT PLATINUM AGP8X 256MB DDR3 VGA DVI-I TV OUT VIDEO CARD RE (100-435211) $799.98

almost exactly twice its price, and its performance isnt two times as good.

And your main problem is you wont buy anything from anyone except NCIX, not saying that NCIX isnt good but there are more reliable sites then one in the entire world. You could get the Geforce 6800 for as little as 300 even and your goana pay 700 for the x800xt which is stupid because it really doesnt outperform the 6800 that much.

BFG GEFORCE 6800 GT OC AGP8X 256MB DDR3 VGA DVI S-VIDEO OUT VIDEO CARD RETA (BFGR68256GTOC) Yes $570.65

this card beat the x800 xt in benchmarks... http://graphics.tomshardware.com/graphi ... se-09.html

and when it didnt beat the x800xt... it was VERY close, so the x800xt isnt worth the extra 200+ dollars but its your money so enjoy

2005 your the biggest idiot. The reason I buy from NCIX is cause they have Price Match, their store is really close to my house, and they have free shipping on orders over $200. PWNED.

Dude, think about what you are saying...

Say if I wanted all this:

World of Warcraft
Half Life 2
EPSON Stylus C86

Let's say NCIX's prices were outrageous. OK, I go to www.pricenetwork.ca, type in the names of the items, find the website and Price Match it so I get the same price as that website from NCIX. There are VERY few websites that have this, and say if I was buying from.. www.yaddayadda.com or w.e, and they had Half Life for REALLY cheap and it was a legit website, but they didn't have WoW for very cheap, and they didnt have price match so if I were to buy from them I'd be paying more than if I were to buy from NCIX because I can get it from NCIX for the same price as them AND I can price match WoW as well, + other things I buy.

NCIX has never rejected my Price Matches, and in my opinion, some have been PRETTTTTY outrageous.

wait a second, im the idot????? YOUR the one buying a card that costs 700$ when you could get a card that costs 200$ or more cheaper and outperforms it and stays right with it in some cases. I even give you benchmarks and you call me the idot... thats just tff.

I didnt say anything bad about NCIX at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, but you defeated yourself because you twisted my argument and failed miserabley at it. I never said i could get a better price on any of those INDIVIDUAL CARDS.... what I DID SAY WAS THAT YOU COULD GET A CARD THAT WAS AS GOOD OR BETTER FROM A DIFF SITE (it was the one i seen it on so i used it) I never said i could get better prices... i just said i could get a card at a cheap price that would beat the x800xt in value and in most cases performace, never once argued that ncix wouldnt give me the same price on that same card, you did.

Next time, before you insult me read a little bit. I have nothing aginst any one store...
