right now i have a asus N6800xt agp 128mb and have it oc close to max. and I found this deal on a refibished Ati Radeon X800Xl for $119.00 on ati's site. i want to upgrade one last time before i go all out and buy a new system. I'm not sure if it is worth the switch. I though it was a good deal and want to take advantage of it since i have a $50rebate coming soon and selling a harddrive to a friend.
 
It might not be a very worthy upgrade unless the Radeon X800XL has 256MB of RAM.

Plus, at $120, you could probably find a Geforce 7300 GS or possibly a used Geforce 7600 GT, both of which would last you quite a while.

7300 and 7600 are not gaming cards.

Stick with the 6800xt. the X800xl wont be much of an upgrade at all, if any. Ceraintly not worth the $120...
 
The 7600 GT kicks ass as a mid range card.

Not everyone can afford a Geforce 7950 GTX or Radeon X1900XT.

I do agree with Event there though.
 
Yep, stick with the 6800xt. The only worthy upgrade would be a 7800GS and that's a waste of money, since you'll be buying a new system.
