shit yeah ! blow the doors off ya 6600GT !
the biggest strength of the x1950 pro is that it has a beast of a shader engine for a low/mid card! so basically n e thing modern supporting shader technology will play good! [up to a point obviuosly]
eg against a gf6800ultra and 7800gs [which r both way better than 6600gt] it blows the doors of them in most games! 1280x1024 with all eye candy on seems to be the best compromise 4 most games!
BF2142 kills em , Oblivion kills em all , Call of Duty 2 same , Company of Heroes etc, Farcry HDR, Pacific Fighters [opengl] same,Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, infact the only one where it is on par or a little behind is Quake4. but i am pretty sure that ther are later drivers to fix that up ! they used catalyst 6.12 in test [getting old now] i had a look and yes later drivers seem to fix it up!
agp vz pci-e - ther seems to be a slight performance hit on agp but it is only very minor .
in fact i am going to squeeze one into my shitter putey [without the big chief knowing of course] shhhh

Ta for that GURU! I'm in the same boat as fig AMD3000+/6600GTagp etc and am lookin 4 new vid card. Have been an NV man all my life and think it's time to see what the other side's like. Think i'll give the x1950pro a go!
Arguing on the internet is like winning the special Olympics. Even if you win you're still a 'tard!
