Radeon X700 vs GeForce 6600 Comparison (AGP & PCIe)

The winds of change are once again sweeping across the harsh graphics landscape, as they have been doing so like clockwork almost every year. Despite the fact that there are only two main chipmakers in the market, the competition is every bit as intense as Coke and Pepsi. Of the two, NVIDIA drew first blood with its GeForce 7800 series while its rival ATI has faced delays with its next generation graphics card. When the long awaited X1800 series is released in the coming weeks, both sides would have their cards on the table and the media circus to determine who is the top dog for the next year will shift into high gear.

The higher Core Clock and extra Vertex Shaders on the X700 seem to push it above and beyond the 6600. So if you are in the market for a decent card but are on a very limited budget, check out the article at Hardware Zone.
