http://www.tomshardware.com/2006/08/25/sub_200_pci_express_graphics_card_showdown/ The x850 xt is on sale at newegg for 96$. It was the most expensive and best card in the previous gen. The Toms Review above showed it was the same as cards in the 200$ range and above. Only thing is it doesn't have pixel shader 3 but for 2 times the power at half the price that is an insignificant loss. I upgraded from pixel shader 3 card (geforce 6800) to it and it was well worth it. The x850xt is a RIDICULOUS value. It's performance is like 4 times that of these other 100$ budget card!
