i got the visiontek x850xt damm things is sweet. i had org picked up the 800xl at comp usa for 299 but seen the x850xt and grabed that instead for 519.... probly shoulda got two x800xls and tried a dual card set up... ill post my ocing results when i get a chance to oc this new card. so far rage3d tweek wich i am used to using will not reconise this x850xt for some reason so i need a new ocing tool. i hear ati tool is a good choice? anyone?

thx perc,

Running it 660/650 24x7 with v-core mod. I did raise it up by .1v but don't remember where the stock point was :P Watercooled and haven't bothered to raise it up further as right now I am very CPU limited on performance. (ATI X850XT PE OEM)

**higgins** · 03-30-2005, 05:11 AM

Hmm seems like more ppl have the PE. The problem is that they're like $100 more than the non-PEs. Where are the ppl with non-PEs? Do the nonPEs o/c that crappy?

I'm hoping that the main difference is the lack of VIVO on the XT. Especially as I took the cheap option and plumped for the XT (Â£270 on ebay).

**gocchin** · 03-30-2005, 02:00 PM

I had an XT, it was no different from the PE except for the stock clocks and since it was OEM did not have vivo, but was over $100 cheaper:

as u can see the core clocks like crap and i think most non-pe cards have the same problem

Hmm yes, same here.

mines not a PE its just a normal x850xt. mem clocks will run 600mhz stock air wich is the first time ive gotten a video card with good memory. the core clocks i havent played with yet but im sure there just fine....

peace perc,

@kristos
Since you are looking for a good clocker I'll put my comment here.

Have you looked into the x800xt's? They seem to be doing pretty good against the x850xt's and are more economical. No, I'm not saying that the x850's are bad. Just that I have read (don't quote me on this) that they are better clock for clock because of some â€œlooseâ€ memory timings the x850xt's have and that the x850xt don't scale as high as their x800xt cousins.
Although this is turning out to be a nice x850xt/pe O/C database. I wanted to point that out to you since you started this thread looking to upgrade.

If this info is wrong in any way I'm sure somebody more knowledgeable than me on this subject will step forward shortly. I'm also planning to upgrade soon and I'm looking for info. Just sharing what I have found so far.
Good luck!

changed to WC, but it doesn't bring anything other than coldness and quietness...i really need to voltmod it...i have to grab a multimeter first though...apparently voltmodding without measuring even though only doing a pencil mod is not recommended...hahahah

**Turok** · 04-10-2005, 07:44 AM

Amazing stuff

Im planning on getting this card (as shown in my signature below), but what would be the best deal? a xt or a xt pe?
I would like to go above 600 mhz with core and mem without any vmod (for now).
Whats the best x850xt brand? Powercolor, Sapphire, ASUS?
Does this card OC way better than the 6800 U?

**Der_KHAN** · 04-10-2005, 08:07 AM

all X850's are built by Sapphire. l'inq

so i guess the brand doesnt matter.

What OCs better? The x850xt or x850xt pe? Will the xt go as far as the pe?
does the x850xt OC way better than the 6800 u?

The x850xt is way better than the 6800u. Also it looks like the x850xt and the pe overclock about the same.
