Before you buy anything from Nvidia. Go to thier website www.nivida.com and ask a question any question. Good luck.

There customer support sucks.

this is actually kindof tough sortof...since bf2 is one of those large games, itll need more memory to store textures, so yea...try looking for a 6800 256mb

The Radeon x1300 Pro has no chance against the Nvidia 6800 at all, I think even the x1600 Pro would fail.

i love Ati, but the 6800 is just better... but for high end games you need 256 mb of vga ram

The OP needs to go google some benchmarks, making a poll will tell you nothing because too many people are ignorant to the facts and dont follow the industry close enough.

The 6800 can be thought of as an uber 6600GT for comparison and it is a great deal faster than the x1300. But dont rely on me, go actually read about this stuff, your poll might tell you a 6800 is better, but your not actually going to know why.

I have compared the specs, the ATI x1300 has double the memory (you already know that) A lot of people chose nVidea because everyone is always against the winning force, look at microsoft? a lot of people say that windows s*cks but it doesn't...

For BF2 i strongly suggest the X1300

There is a 256MB x1300 pro and a 256mb 6800. The difference in memory shouldnt help except at high resolutions with AA and AF

save a hundred more and buy a 7800 thats what i recommend. it is unbelievably fast and very beautiful

but if you are short in cash, id go with the 6800, the GS is new and cheaper

Please man you have no idea what you are talking about so why do you suggest anything? a x1300 is not a gameing card and is not good for any game, doesn't matter how much memory it have

there you can see how a x1300 perform against a 6600GT and a 6600GT perform about the same as a 6800. get some fact before you write stupid things next time ;)
