My boyfriend Joe treated me to a early Christmas present - a Connect3D ATI Radeon X800 XT 256MB DDR3 VIVO (AGP) !

It's fantasticly faster than my 9800 Pro.

I'll post a detailed benchmark comparison between my 9800 Pro and the X800 XT later (when I've finished, it's already taken two days!).

Don't worry, if it was your husband you would probably still have gotten Butt Pirates!

That was a terrible joke, but difficult to resist. Please take no offense!

Oh, and congrats on the new video card!
 
Here is the detailed comparison.

I'm not Dave, but if I was, I would not hire gays as reviewers.

Ignore him Pete, he's just teasing ya.

Either that or he's an arrogant SOB, take your pick. ;)

I wasn't sure if he was using subtle humor, along the lines of; 'gay' which orginally ment 'happy'.

Or whether he was being your latter description ;)
