GREAT!Strengths: Best agp card u can get! this thing is a beast it can handle any game out there right now. Weakness: Its agp and its a dying breed. Get this card if u have a motherboard that is agp and cant or don't want to upgrade to a pci-e motherboard. This card will be good for a while to come and by then you will have to upgrade your whole system anyhow. Get this one you will be happy you did.

ATI Radeon X850 XT Platinum Edition Video CardStrengths: Faster than 6800 Ultra, Only requires 350watt power supply, Great for HL AND Doom 3! Weakness: Slightly more expensive than 6800 Ultra, Uses Catalyst drivers(which from time to time are buggy) I purchased this card from Space Center Systems a little over a week ago and paid $640 total including tax, anx 2 day shipping.. the price is now at $499 which means it went down $100 in a week? Wow... sucks for me. Anyways its a GREAT card! Before this I had a 6800 Ultra OC and scored a 5130 on 3DMark05. With the EXACT same system configuration, the x850xt PE gave mea 5900! thats almost 800...

ATI Radeon X850 XT Platinum Edition Video CardStrengths: High performance, great price. Weakness: None yet. Fan is NOT loud except for 5 seconds during bootup of system. Otherwise very quiet. I have the X850xt AGP version (but not the Platinum Edition). I merely use the ATI overdrive tool (included with card) to set speeds to the PE levels while playing games only. It then drops back to stock speeds when not playing games. I get PE performance and I paid less then $250 total. Saved $75 at least. This is an elite AGP video card at a very reasonable cost and it was much easier to find....

willStrengths: Probably one of the last great AGP cards to be made. I haven't heard much about the x900's, but when I found this card for $250 AR, I had no excuse NOT to upgrade from my 9600xt. FAST Weakness: How they skipped SM 3.0 is beyond me. I really wanted a vanilla 6800 for the longest time because I liked the idea of getting a 16 pipeline card for approximately 160 bucks. Those cards have become rare and regularly sell for $180 which didn't seem worth it to me anymore. When I found the x850XT for $300, and a $50 rebate on top of that, I couldn't skip it! True 16 pipes, 256meg DDR3 ram.. that was worth it right there. I primarily...

ATI Radeon X850 XT Platinum Edition Video Card
Strengths: The best & fastest single video card ever. Even Gamespot said so...
Weakness: x900 Will dominate this in a few months. I suggest waiting for x900 instead of getting this. The sad part about this chip is the lack of no support for SM 3.0!
Currently the fastest single Video card. Even this single VPU smoked out NVIDIA's greatest single 6800 ULTRA. NVIDIA had to use their SLI technology to win the x850XT over on some games (OpenGL games that has SLI technology in it...). See it even takes 2 6800 Ultras to beat one little x850XT. But its best to not buy this card though. Radeon x900 is coming soon in June as expected. This thing is...
