Is the Leadtek 6800 Gt good? There was like 20 of them at fry's and no one was near them! I was hoping I'd hae to do a fight to the finish for this card ;)

They have better cooling solution: all copper and powerful but quieter fan.

I love it. Nice bundle too.

Go Go Go..

Never hesitate when buying Leadtek, specially when it is loaded with a heavy Copper Cooler and also a quite fan

I have four questions:

1: Is their warranty good?
2: Do they overclock better than other 6800 GT's because of the better fan
3: Will it fit in my case?
4: It was like 450$ at fry's without TAX, should I just get like a cheaper evga from newegg when it comes out?

I've got a PNY 6800GT and it works fine, runs at 60C underload but I got AC in my house, I don't know, I would definitly think that the Leadtek would oc more with the cooling it's got...

It probably wont overclock any better, but it will stay cooler while overclocked. Just because its cool though, doesnt mean its stable.

Wow! $408 shipped? I'm so debating whether to go for this instead of waiting on the BFG to be instock. What do you guys think? Help me out here. I'm confused as to which one to buy.

You think the 2 will be pretty similar in performance? Thanks for your advice!

Hi.

Go with the Leadtek 6800GT..They are the best bang for buck card at the moment. I have had Leadtek products in the past, and they are great overclockers.

I did it. I bought the Leadtek A400 GT. It was $408 shipped. XtremePC gear shipped it within a few hours of my order.
