Ok really need some thoughts....


I need a new card... bad. I already know I want the 6800. I can't get the GT because of lack of cash (hey i'm 15 and no job with good income!). I built my rig about a month ago with grass cutting money, but right now I am running on a geforce 3.

So I WAS going to get the eVGA 6800, but I have heard from a few people here saying that it sucks. But THEN I saw this!
http://www.bfgtech.com/6800OC.html

It says the 15th... does anyone have any clue if it will be $300? Because their GT is right at $400.. and I have to save any cash that I can. Also does anyone know if Best Buy and them will have them on the 15th, or is it going to be that mad rush of a few sites having them for like $500 each?

These hot new cards from BFG will retail for $299, and yes, Best Buy will carry them. Looks like they ship with the elite HS/Fans setup as well.. I'd say get that if you can't afford a GT.. Lifetime warranty and pre-overclocked!

BFG released the GT and Ultras before the 6800.. No clue why.
