GeForce 6800 vs 6800 Ultra

I got one final question before I finally purchase my new video card. I can get a 6800 for $270 or I can get a 6800 Ultra from NewEgg for about $296 after sales tax. What's the difference between the two and is it worth spending a little extra for an Ultra?
 
Excuse me if I'm wrong but I thought the 6800 Ultra's go for around 600 dollars... are you sure your not talking about a 6800 O.C.'ed?

Also if you can get a GT for around the same price or pay just a little extra I always found going GT rather then standard is always worth the money.
 
Sorry if I confused anyone. I'm not quite up to speed with the latest video cards out these days..... I went back on to pricewatch and it turns out there was mistake. I clicked on the prices for 6800 Ultra's and the first few listing show some cards in the upper 200's. However, upon closer inspection I noticed that those cards were not Ultras, rather they were just regualar 6800 cards. Apparently they were in the wrong category by accident.

Well, at least now I answered my own question.
