Asus Extreme N6800 GeForce 6800 Ultra PCIe - Even in single card scenarios,
the GeForce 6800 Ultra PCIe proves itself to be a faster overall card compared to ATIs Radeon X800 XT, although this may be a hollow victory. ATIs next generation Radeon X850 XT cards will be shipping in early February and will likely give ATI the performance edge to best the 6800 Ultra in single card systems. When SLI is added to the mix though, there is simply no question that dual 6800 Ultra PCIe cards perform much faster. Keep in mind though, in order to truly see the performance benefits of such a high-end SLI system, resolutions and image quality settings must be set at ultra-high levels.
