Radeon X800XL Round up

You may wonder why even review the X800XL since the X1K series is (somewhat)
out. Well, these cards cost around USD 250 to 350, well below the X1800XL
and very near the X1600 series. Experience (and preliminary benchmarks) seem
to indicate that the X1600 series has about the same level of performance as
the GeForce 6800, only when not doing AA and AF. So, we think the X800XL is
still worth buying (and we’re also hoping these cards will get a price cut
soon). We test four cards this time: ABIT RX800XL 256EDVIO, ASUS EAX800XL
2DTV256, Gecube X800XL 256 MB Uniwise and Gigabyte X800XL Silent Pipe
(GV-RX80L256V).

If the new X1K series didn’t do much for you, maybe you will want to consider the proven X800XL series. Check out the full round-up over at Tech-Hounds.
