I personally would save some money and get a 6600 gt. You could also get a 6800gt for around 320-380, from what I hear though the 6600s oc nicely.

What do you mean save money? 300-350 its not enough for a 6600GT?
if so which model of 6600GT r u talking about?

Cant you OC an 6600 to 6800 level? Then you could OC 6800 to a higher lvl but still both good cards. Also no I meant you can get a 6600gt for what are they now like 180?

gah, forgot that two stars isn't enough for classifieds... anyway, if you are in the US, heres a link from the Egg:


6800: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?submit=property&DEPA=1
6800GTs: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?submit=property&DEPA=1

remember, 6800 GTs are significantly better than 6800s (which are superior to 6600gts), and they are probably the best "bang for the buck" video card now... well, they were...

go for the Asus or XFX 6800GT... for $354 for the XFX one, its a no-brainer
