Went with LeadTek - it got top honors from Anandtech and came bundled with Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, which is absolutely FANTASTIC.

Nice card though. The Gigabyte is supposed to be an excellent performer.

Did anyone buy this card from Newegg? If so, what bundled games does it come with?

OT - yeah, Sands of Time was such a surprisingly linear gameplay given the full 3D environment

Mine came with Doom3, it's a great card.

I get 110+ fps on VST @ 1280x1024 and it's max overclock is 580/1250 on water. I run it slower because I don't want to stress the card.

Oh, alright. Thanks.

I got the same card too, since it is the cheapest 6600GT PCI-Express one can get where I live. the NX66T128D-3 comes with Doom3, while the plain NX66T128D is cheaper only because it doesn't come with Doom3 but rather with Thief 3: Deadly Shadows and Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising. Other than that, they are identical. The difference between 6600GT makers is small, and the Gigabyte one is on par with nVidia's design.
