I keep hearing the X800 is much better than the 1600. As a matter of fact everything is better than the 1600...

no not true. the aiw cards have slower gpus and ram. but they do have tv tuners.
my friend has a sapphire x1600pro 256mb and it rocks. not to mention it was only 120 shipped. i would go with the x1600 personally...

go for the 256mb version than the 512mb. the ram chips are faster and can overclock higher
