Purchasing a new video card, need advice!

Since there seem to be alot of techheads arguing for/against ATI and Nvidia Re PS3 and X360, I thought it might be nice to pose this question here

I'm looking into buying a new AGP videocard, and I've got my choices narrowed between a 6800Ultra 256 and the ATI radeon X850XT-PE. There is no price difference between the two, and while I'm aware that the Ultra has a couple extra features, it is also overclocked, is it not? either way, advice will be welcomed.
 
ATi X850 XT wins hands down. This is coming from an 6800 Ultra OC owner.

Doom 3 is the only game that it would run faster on the Nvidia card.

The extra feature is some sort of pixel shader that really isn't used and when it is there's hardly a difference.
