The X800 PRO is only better in HL2.
The difference with the 6800GT is still very little.
The 6800 GT is faster in almost all other games.
Also, 6800 GT is one step ahead of the x800 what support for technologies like SM 3.0 are concerned..so you're set for future games also.
That's...
I always take games the way they are, because it's USELESS to whine..
And I almost never think, 'hey they should have included this' , that's pathetic as I think about it..
Guinny has suddenly taken a anti-valve stance lol :)

btw we don't have to worry about anything, since the game gets grades from 96% to 98% ..that's the highest I've ever seen in the last 5 years.
Well with the standard drivers I got black triangles or lines in 3dmark05, now with 66.71 they are gone.
Somebody else on futuremark.com had the same problem.
The standard drivers just suck with 3dmark05.
Further more, I can't comment on fps in games, because I haven't tested, but doom...
Ok my card is in now, and guys remember one thing:
USE THE 66.71 DRIVERS!!!
I got 3620 points or something in 3dmark05 with the standard ones from nvidia site, and now I got 4619 :D
Unfortunatly I can't test CS:S yet, because I don't have a credit card.
But what a card this is lol...
Yes, true :)
But since HL2 is kinda ATI, I was just wondering ..
Right now I still have my ati 9700 pro in my pc, but I upgraded to nvidia 6800 Gt because it's faster in most games then ati, just not in HL2. ( small difference)
I just ordered a XFX 6800 GT, and I would like to know how these cards handle cs:s and the source engine..
So, to all people using these series; how's it going? :)
Did you guys see the new HL2 screenshot @ update news @ steam? :D
It was suddenly there lol :)
it says 'pre-purchage halflife 2 now, play counterstrike:source immediatly'
