In some GpGPU test, AMD Xenos yields about 22 to 25 percent of NV Geforce 8800 GTX**(G80) performance. Incidentally, AMD Xenos yields similar performance as NV Geforce 8600 GT (G84) when playing multi-platform HD games.

Larger data size reduces Xeno's yields to 13 to 16 percent of G80. There are hard limits for the Xenos. **Paired with an old AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+ @2.21Ghz.

With that in mind, a NV Geforce GTS 250 (rename Geforce 9800) cost about $119.99 USD . A gaming PC can be built for $499 USD. On performance per dollar terms, $499 PC kills the Xbox 360. AMD Radeon HD 4850 cost about $99.99 USD.
