Looks like a good card, under $200 with 256mb of RAM and a 6800XT core. I'm just wondering if its memory runs at 256-bit.

yes it's memory runs on 256-bit.

by the way this card is worser than normal 6800 becasue it just has 8 pipes.

yes it 256-bit. You can probably oc it to get alot more out of it. For that price though you might want to get a 7600 gt. The 6800 is older tech and the 7600 gt for around $150-200 would be much better for future games.

yeah 7800 is a good idea

?? that's not what they're talking about at all.

BTW I will have my 6800GS for sale in a bit

if your going to spend $200 go for the GeForce 7600 GT (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1931185&CatId=0)

I plan to buy it (or splurge for the 7900GT) when i build my new mobo in February.........

plus it comes w/ a game......

 

[septoid2]

I wasn't considering buying it, those are Canadian prices too.

 

[TREMBER]

i say even a 7600gs is a better card

people have said in sli they are better than 7900

 

[odysseus]

Buy the 7600GT XXX its $170 now! buy it! (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1931185&CatId=0_
