The card runs F.E.A.R. smoothly in general, the only problem is that I only have 512 mb of ram, so I get frequent pauses. I can tell though, that without those ram - related pauses, the card gives an FPS around 50 and that's with 1150x8** and no AA, 4x AF and everything else Max..
I would honestly recommend the X800 XL to anyone looking for an upgrade that is not too pricey. I bought it for 350 CAD (285 USD) at futureshop and I don't regret it at all. It runs the slightly older/graphics intensive games like HL2/D3/FarCry all on max settings (1280x1024 res) with a consistant FPS of around 60 or more. As for newer games, it is still keeping up without problems, and I can run games like BF2 on Max settings (AA off though) and 1280x1024 resolution with an FPS between 40-80 on those 64 player servers. Definately a card which brings you the bang for your buck.
