good deal?

I can grab this for $130. What's the big difference with the GT? It's $50 more.
It shows the memory is almost 2x as fast and nandwidth is almost 2x more. I guess that's worth $50?

you do know its back ordered? I think the only difference is the GT is clocked faster.

The GT has DDR3, and is also PCI-E, while the one you show is AGP and only DDR, and you already mentioned the bandwith.

All the 6600's are PCI-E. Only the 6600GT has an agp flavor. The GT has much better memory and the clocks really add up performance wise.

Its just like they all have said. There is no point in getting a 6600 when the GT just smokes it. Plus its PCI-E only. Not sure if you knew that

I found a 6600 that is AGP as well as a 6600GT that is AGP as well. For roughly the same price I guess this kills the 5900se, so I'm ordering the GT (not from the mfg) it's in stock elsewhere.
