Radeon X1900 XTX

Well it seems as though ATI is finally catching up with Nvidia's 7800 GTX graphics cards. It took them 7 months, but they did it. The Radeon X1900 XTX performs more efficiently in select games than the 7800 GTX in single GPU mode; but once you kick on the 7800 GTX in SLI then things start to slow down for the X1900 XTX, even in crossfire mode. With the GeForce 8 series graphics cards about to arrive it rather makes me wonder how long ATI will be able to sit in the king's chair.

Will the Radeon X1900 XTX be able to hold it's ground in the coming months with the release of the GeForce 8 series?

Yeah; so am I, but I really do think the GeForce 8 series will have a great gain in performance. Don't forget that ATi raises clock speed a lot. Nvidia still has relatively slow clock speeds; but more pipelines to push information through. So if Nvidia decides to have fast clock speeds with the same pixel pushing power...you get...well; a very very nice video card. :)

Let's just hope the next step in the Radeon "X" clan doesn't have some new technology up its sleeve.
