The X1650pro is faster than the X1600XT so the X1650Xt must be pretty good.

As expensive as the X1600XT is, you can save up $50 more and get an X1800GTO. That is what I would do.

Or if I get the X1600PRO and flash a X1600XT BIOS? Will there be any problems?

Ok. I have just found this one. The Sapphire X1600XT Ultimate. Looks good but nowhere mentions pricing. How much does it cost?

overclocker the x1800gto runs a r520 core at 12pipe 12shader 500mhz/1000mhz, the x1650xt runs a r560 core with 8pipe 24shader and much higher frequencies.

If you get an HIS X1800GTO, you can unlock the pipes to 16 and get alot better performance. My X1800GTO at 600/600 12 pipe was getting 7600 on 3dmark05.

o sorry i was looking at the stupid thing on this site saying that the x1800gto was being renamed to x1650xt lol i think the x1650xt will be faster then the x1800gto and much better in a game like fear b/c all the shaders.
