Most people here would say go with the 7800gt, so to avoid being flamed, I will too.

X850XT is nowhere near the 7800GT in terms of performance. If you want an ATI card that competes with the 7800GT, go for the X1800XL. Even so, I say go 7800GT. I can't believe so many people still consider the X800 series cards.

XFX as I've never had anything else and also they are Nvidia's Official Partner.
