Swap out?

[TonCrafter]

I've got a 6800 Ultra in my pc currently. Is the 7800 gt so much better that I should upgrade or is the difference minimal? I havent seen much comparing the two yet.

Thanks all.

The 6800U costs more than the 7800GT.
Do you have evga?

keep the 6800ultra, its still good for a couple of more years

though if you want you can buy the 7800GT or GTX

It's not going to be that much better. Wait awhile. If you have eVGA you could use their step-up program.

If I were you, seeing you have the SLI board, I would just add another 6800U. That 6800U will last for a while, maybe a year or two. So once prices fall, add another one. Don't do it right now; I think you won't see much of a difference.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll just stay with my ultra for now and maybe toss another in there.

yeah the 6800 ultra is a great card.
you wont see a HUGE increase, not enough to justify the cost at this point

i would rather see you go with a 7800gtx, than put 6800 ultra's in sli though
