A64 3200
2X512 Corsair 3200
MSI Neo4-F
NEC 3550

For Far Cry, HL2, BF2

Choosing between:
X800GTO $136.50 shipped (Fixed link, sorry)

6600 GT$114 shipped

Some thoughts please. I'd like to get 256MB, but budget restraints prevail.

Although I like PBS, the 6600gt is cheaper.

I'd still go with PBS though as they should be monster overclockers.

No, you should get a 9800p for $90 - it's even cheaper. Oh wait, the 6600gt is supposedly worth the price difference? Then a gto is sure as hell worth the difference over a 6600gt. It's not even a contest, and since they OC so well, the performance difference grows even bigger when you consider OCing.

Go for the gto, and if possible get the 256mb version off newegg for 159. Awesome cards I hear.

Yeah, GTOs are awesome once you overclock them... although I still love my old 6600GT.

My overclocked GTO card to 600Mhz core /600Mhz mem...is running games faster then my 6800Ultra did and giving me a higher 3Dmark2005 score ... i dont know why you would even put these cards side by side , you should say

Should i get a X800GTO or a 6800Ultra
