Hi, I compared them and there really is no comaprison the X1950 pro crush's the 2600 XT hamds down.
the only thing the 2600XT hold over the X1950 is it can do directx10 but there is no power behind it.
the x1950 pro beat it by a long mile on any benchmark or video card compaison chart I could find the 2600XT was toward the bottom of the list where there X1950 pro was more toward the top and just under the nvidia 8800's like I was explaing toward the top of this post.
I will stick with the X1950 pro and continue to find one of them.
that's why there still expensive becuase you get what you pay for performance wise and that is what the 2600XT's lack.

I guess you are right on that one. I am out of the loop on ATI cards as I have used Nvidia for quite some time in my rigs. I found new X1950 Pro's at Tigerdirect for $189 if that helps at all. Sorry about the misinformation!

***EDIT - The link I gave earlier for the other ATI card is supposed to be a 2900XT but the product information is all crazy. It calls it a 2900XT all through it, but shows a 2600XT in the pic and later talks about 2600XT in the specs. Maybe they didn't even make a 2900XT for AGP? Weird...

Hi I checked that link and those are only the 256MB version
I am looking for the HIS pro or sapphire pro version becuase they are the only models made with 512MB and actually the HIS pro 512MB revision #2 is the best of these two becuase it has turbo and the iceq stuff where it can overclock a tad better then the sapphire.
found one and no longer looking
