Id go with the 3800 with the gt, because with some astute overclocking, you can make the gt equal in speed to the ultra.

But I don't overclock and I am not willing to over clock because it is too much of a risk..... ( plus I dont know how to :) )

it's not a big risk at all and it's not that hard. i've never had any bad after effects from ocing and hearing people fry their cpu's is really rare (not by chance, but from stupidity most of the time). :)

Go with the 3400/6800GT The small increase in performance you will see with the 3800/6800 Ultra is not worth the extra cash.

hmmm...... I thought the 3800 was like a beast compared to a 3400, isn't it faster and stuff ? O ya and its a 3400 with an 6800 Ultra,
and the 3800 with the GT, everyone says this CPU is a lot faster ......................

It is faster yes....but you won't notice that much of a difference. So unless you need to spend your money for some reason, it's not worth it.

couple more frames here and there probably, but nothing drastic

if you're web surfing there will be zero difference

Get the 3400 and a BFG 6800GT. The BFG 6800GT comes overclocked, and has a lifetime warantee.
