| Apex Techie II | My 9800xt is on it's way out, im pretty sure the memory is failing. It has been overclocked for some time now, so I'm not surprised. Anyways, I found an X1300 Pro for $130, and I was wondering if it would be worth the upgrade, or if it's even an upgrade at all. Any thoughts?

| Aqua Pimp | Hit Newegg.com - Buy Computer Parts, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras, and Electronics, you might be able to find something nicer in your price range. The X1300 is an excellent card for video quality, but it won't play most modern games very well. I'm sure you can find more bang for the buck @ $130 dollars.

| Apex Tech God | Yeah the x1300 is definatly bad. For $130 you can pick up an X850Pro that will be pretty dang powerful. Be warned though--it puts out a lot of heat and needs a lot of power. Alternativly you could pick up a 7600GS which wouldn't be as powerful but it would be cooler and need less power.

![]() ![]() | Just incase you where still looking, my insight suggests the Sapphire x1600Pro at a nudgen over $105 is a steal for the months to come till the major mid-'07 Direct-X refreshing.
