google my child lol. going out on a limb I would say no not if it is a 9800 with 360 core that can flash to XT or they would possibly be close. 9800 pro is beat by 6800nu and not crushed, but beat in some things by a bigger margin in others a smaller margin, overall edge to the 6800nu

depends on cost of either if the 6600 is equal in cost go for itif it is more than may be consider 9800 pro or better yet a 6800nu. Personally I would just look for a used 6800nu and this is coming from a long time ATI fanboy that now drives and LE 6800 256 DDR3>Ultra . Also have had 3 6800nu Leadtek cards well worth every penny

I am sure others will add their comments to correct me if I am wrong :cool: :attn:

well the 6600gt beats the xt by a huge margin(considering price for punch) so the 6600 should be equal if not better :D
