x800gto vs 6800nu? AGP
The comparison, specs wise, would seem to indicate that the x800gto should easily outperform the 6800nu with 1 more vertex shader, faster clocks and more memory. However, I'm unable to confirm this in a real world benchmark. Has anyone found a website which has released benchmarks detailing both these cards?

I'm trying to decide if the gto is worth $45 extra

Bam! That's what you want. Unlock it and have fun. No contest with the 6800nu.

He said AGP, so no such luck with the gto. Overall, the 6800nu is on par with a x800 vanilla, and the gto is faster than a regular x800. So the gto would be faster, but some 6800's for AGP can unlock to 16 pipes, it might be worth a try if you're willing to risk it.

My bad . Get a 6800nu that unlocks here on the forum then. Should be around 150-160 bucks.
