I find your numbers hard to believe. Try those cards on 3DMark 05 you WILL SEE a big deference.i would take a 7300gt over a 6600.
my agp hit a little over 6100 on 3dmark 03 when i overclocked it.
my buddys brothers 7300gt hits 7652 with stock clocks beating a 6600gt and oc'ed it hits 9123 3600 on 05 stock and 4501 overclocked so personaly i would get the 7300gt for $79 baleave me the extra $10-$20 is worth getting the gt model if a 7600 is out of your price range.

I would go for the 6600GT without question! or save a little more money and get the 7600GS/GT
This question has ben asked before, 6600GT was and IS better.
Ok I can see that.i dunno, i would have agreed with you if i hadn't googled the specs of the 7300GT.... Now i have to change my opinion, However i will still have to say that a 6600 will beat the 7300GS, the gs is only 4x1,3vp. Now, if you can get a 7300GT for cheaper or near the same as a 6600, then get that... but make sure to get the DD3 model and not the DDR2 model. The DDR3 model clocks in at 8x1,4vp 500mhz Core/1400mhz Mem, those are nice clocks, the memory is 400mhz faster than that of the 6600GT, and with the newer technology it is sure to outperform it, that is my opinion.
Vipersfate said:Im a huge fan of the Nvidia 6600GT. My card is made by PNY Technologies. This card is amazing. I have seen some of the lower end model of the 7 series do extremely poor compared to my card. I've been able to play some of the more advanced games recently. Oblivion runs very well with medium settings, and Doom 3 is easy. Halo for PC runs flawlessly on this card.
NO WAY rea you gettin 6458 in 3dmark05 with a vinalla 6600 more like a 3dmark03 score.nvidiaOCmaster said:6600... Ive had one for about a 6 months now. I played fear at 100% max settings. And scored 6458 on 3Dmark05 oc'd to 630mb 550coreclock.

6600gt 3071
7300gt 3643
7300gt @ 640/1600 4492
also the 7 series handles hdr better. point on half life 2 a 6600gt gets 61.59 and a 7300gt gets 70 81 when overclocked
oblivion 6600gt 26.5 7300gt 35 43 when overclocked
from everything i have seen and red that 7300gt beats the crap out of the 6600gt and better hdr suport helps alot. unless you majorly overclock that 6600gt i still stand by my clame the 7300gt is better. But unless that 6600gt overclocks better than the 7300gt i would go with the 7300gt but i havent seen much about over clocking them and the highest clocks reached becides what i posted here.
