Graphic Cards ATI Radeon X1800 "R520" !

Don't plan to start a war here but there's no game in which a 6800U is faster than a X800XTPE/X850XTPE other than doom 3. This assumes you are putting generous helpings of AA and AF. In fact with AA&AF, the X850XTPE performance is pretty close to 7800GT in most games.

I wasnt looking for a war...but I am always ready to fight :P

6800 U was better than a X800 XTPE...the X 850 was a desperate and rather uneviable attempt to close the performance gap...had nvidia released a 6850 U... like the 5900/5950 then it probably would have crushed the X850XTPE
 
But they did not because they tried to release an Ultra Extreme version. Did not work. Yields were very low.

The fact remains that the X850 XT PE, kicked everything else out there(Single card congfigs i.e)
 
ATi R520XT Scores 85xx In 3DMark05 :cool2:

According to preliminary tests done by our friends at HKEPC, R520XT clocked at 650MHz core and 1400MHz memory will score ~8600 on 3DMark05 using FX-55, nearly 1K higher than GeForce 7800GTX at 430/1200MHz. If the R520 clocks run at 550/1200MHz, the score will be around the same as the 7800GTX. It is certainly interesting to see how the R520XTs in Crossfire performs. There is a 32 pipes version of the R520 as well but it can only be clocked at 520MHz and as a result it will perform lower than the 24 pipes R520XT @ 650Mhz core. Therefore ATi will not release 32pp version until R580 comes along.

Post on the sticky thread mate. 3dmark test dont mean anything, lets see the IQ and the feature sets, if they have anything up against TSAA etc..
