6800ultra flavor differences

[Ogi]

I currently own a athlon64 3200 and i'm considering purchasing the 6800 ultra for a graphics card, however with so many different companies making various "versions" of it, what's the best way to determine which one to get?

i am considering waiting until pci-x gets released for amd motherboards and picking up one of those, especially if a better version of that graphics card will be offered for it.

thanks for any links/info/advice.

Read the reviews??

Umm.. hehe sorry, but seriously..

Well, I think the BFG ultra has a mocha, smokey flavor, whereas the PNY version is more of a mint tea leaf taste.

i haven't seen reviews comparing different flavors of 6800 ultra, i've seen 6800 compared to the x800 and such.... but haven't seen the different flavors compared with each other.
