PCIe 6600GT vs other sub $250 cards

[pickle965]

Been thinking about going with a Nvidia 6600GT for my new Athlon64 non-SLI PCIe rig, found one for $185 which seems like a great value. Just wanted to know if there are any other cards worth considering or anything new coming out soon from either ATI or Nvidia that will compete with the 6600gt for about $250 or less. Thanks in advance.

Not really, but for $300 you can get the X800XL which is almost as good as a 6800GT which costs $100 more, retail.
