I mean 5 more fps isn't worth $600.

Try 100 more fps. With settings maxed out.

Seriously, if you knew anything about video cards, you'd know how idiotic this conversation is. If you want the best, get a 7800. If you want low to midrange, get an X600. But you'll be hitting ~40 fps on most games with settings at medium to low, at best.

EDIT: Ok, took the time to find a benchmark. It all seems pretty even, but scroll down to the bottom when they shove Doom 3 to 1600x1200 on high quality. A single 7800GTX hits the 100+ fps mark without breaking a sweat. The next card up from the X600, the X700, can't break 30 fps. So is it $600 better? Abso-freaking-lutely. Is it worth $600 of your money? Well, you'll have to decide that for yourself.

I have a nVidia GeForce 4 MX 440.

Dig it.

well seeing as my moniter only goes up to 1280x1024, I don't have to worry about that 1600. and I play all of my games on 1280x1024 with no problem. This includes, Half life 2, Area 51, Battlefield 2 Demo, and City of Heroes. This is on max settings btw.
I haven't had the joy of getting doom3 yet, but, if I do, I won't be playing on 1600x1280. So I guess that point is void.

Im not trying to argue with you about the better graphics card, or even to compare the two together. I know the 7800 is better. Im just saying for what im going to use it for and for that hefty price tag, Is it really worth it?...
