Well folks, I need to get a replacement for the highly artifacting lump of crap I bought off fleabay. Anyone got anything to offer me? I'd like as many pipelines as possible and some overclockability would be nice as well lol :toast:

Cheers for the offer but I'm in the UK and just got a 256Mb Leadtek Winfast 6800GT AGP which I find not a great deal better than my old oc'd Sapphire 9800"XT"!

Morning Mustangman, I'm certainly not in england I'm in N. Ireland which is for the meantime part of the UK! What's so fancy about the gto 2 cards then? Is it the Sapphire one that can be modded to 16 pipelines? How much would postage be to the UK from you?

Hey Munkul, is it hard modded or just bios unlocked? Who made it? How would it compare to an x850 Pro in terms of clock speeds etc? Interested btw! Also, is it the 128Mb or the 256? What core has it got in reality, not just what atiTool says?

Those gto2's look like a possibility!

Umm dude buy a Sapphire X800GTO2 and flash it to X850XT. Some X800GTO2 comes with 16pipelines already which means = X850XT. Then just modify the bios to XT PE speeds and you have a XT PE card with the costs of a X800GTO/2

I just wish Munkul wanted my money! I'd rather keep it in the Techpowerup family than sending my cash to sum crummy business that don't even answer their fones on a saturday morning...
