The X800 is a faster card mate.

"today only" @ scan has the 256Mb ScanFX PCI-E 6800GS SLi Extreme Edition for £130

Check out this chart it will give you some idea

I just pushed the boat out and ordered the 7800gtx from there for £275(p&p inc)

sorry mate link works with firefox but not with IE
here's the full addy http://images.tomshardware.com/2005/12/02/vga_charts_viii/3dupgrade-big.gif

Ebuyer says that the X800 GTO is equivellent to the 850XT PE which scores +31 over your card, the GS is inbetween the GT and Ultra which scores around +47
I don't have either so can't talk from experiance

Do you have an sli capable mobo? if so 2x6600gt's score +33, but you must have another inno3d
