ATI RADEON X800 XT Graphics CardStrengths: Well designed card-seamless integration with Mac OS X.3.8. Very fast. On X-Plane 7.63 with all rendering options at 1024x768 fps stays >50. In UT2K4 full-screen on 20" LCD gameplay is fluid. Weakness: Printed documentation is weak, and not specific to the X800XT. No over-clocking capabilities with the supplied ATI utility program.

Powerhouse graphicsStrengths: Fastest AGP card for Mac Relatively fair priced Weakness: Spendy Gotta have air flow Not much for Mac gaming is it worth $370 for a graphics card upgrade for a computer that's likely 1-2 years old?

ATI or nVidia??????
Strengths: Fast, single slot, drives my ADC 20", 2d & 3d look great.
Weakness: Cant find any.
About a week ago I worked some overtime and thought this is the time for the final upgrade to my Mac G5. I found a nVidia 6800 ultra for $400. and this ATI for $380. and bought them both to decied for myself whats right for me. I ran both cards thru my favorite games and the 800 out did the 6800 in every one! I really wanted the nVidia to smoke the ATI because I've never liked those Canadians!...
