link I was just browsin' the egg, and saw this particular make of the card. I noticed the core and RAM are faster than the others, do you think it's oc'd out of the box, or it uses faster memory?

It "might" have 2.2ns memory on it, or else it is theoretically maxxed out on 2.8ns overclock.
 
Yea, I just brought this up because if that were the case, with the 2.2ns timings. That card would be a VERY nice buy. The only thing i'm not crazy about is the cooling on it, seems inadequate compared to the others.
 
Yeah, the cooling looks a little light. You can always throw one of those new Artic Coolers on there though.
 
That model # card there is actually this card. Newegg used to just sell the standard Chaintech 6800 and that is what is pictured. However they are now selling only the AA6800 turbo version ($288) but just never updated the picture. They did however update the picture of the box/bundle. That is what it comes with.

Yes the card does have 2.2ns ram, I have one and the ram is Hynix 2.2ns and it does 880mhz on my card.
They call the card a "turbo" edition because the core/ram are both overclocked by 10% out of the box.
