What will make or break the deal is whether or not it is 64 or 128Bit memory. Doesn't say in the specs it seems.

128

this isn't just for "non-gamers"...

it works just peachy

seems like a great card for pvrs and htpcs also. can run most games, and its passive cooled.

If your looking to run WoW at decent settings, check out the x700 at tiger direct. Only 70 bucks shipped. BUT if you want an SLied 6600 rig, this is the one to buy.

this is probably better for WoW than the x700.

or at least equal, but it would be better for other games than an x700.

400 core and 700 memory versus 300 core and 500 memory.....
Both 8 pipes.

Bump because I want to know if two of these would be worth it? I'm running on a 9800 pro right now but I'm in the process of building a new rig and I was originally thinking of buying 1 7800GTX but this is so cheap and would save me so much money I'm tempted. Anyone wanna help out?

the 6600 is still faster at most things.


it is probably faster than the x700pro at most things.

the rv410 series was no where near competitive with the nv43 chips.
