and the ati x800 xt (pe??)
http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=313032&pfp=SEARCH

which one would be better to get. the visiontech has ddr3 memory technology and the x800 xt (pe??) dont have ddr3 technology but has the Dual 400 MHz RAMDAC speed while the visiontech only has 400 MHz...which one would be better to get any suggestions?? also how come the visonteck is still in stok but the other isnt, is vison tech bad quality??

:dozey: What are you talking about? Both have GDDR 3. Either one is fine, I don't think Visiontek added any special stuff I.E. box goodies.

The Xtasy is 'pickup only' and I can tell you right now not every Compusa store even has these. hehe
See if you can go to a local Compusa and ask if they can transfer one in for you.
