I have bought a ASUS EN6600GT and a nVidia 6800 256mb PCI-E.

I bought the 6600gt first but then i found the 6800 on an awesome deal and bought it too. How i need to know which one to sell. I have the 6600GT right now but the 6800 is coming.

sell the 6800 like 1% performance difference there is basically no noticable difference. However the 6800 will get you $50 more or so on ebay.
The asus at stock vs a generic 6800 stock the asus will also bench better.

Asus en6600GT gets 3586 generic 6800 3447 no af aa
with the aa / af the asus en6600GT pulls even futher away.

But yeah make your own choice just me personally i would sell the 6800 and keep the Asus

Do you plan on upgrading during the 7, R520 series? If yes, then sell the 6800. If you will wait this generation out, the extra pipes and the bigger buffer wouldn't be such a bad thing to gain for half a benjamin.

See if It can unlock fist :).

Even if it couldn't, I would keep the 6800.
