le, Its good and out-performs anything in it's class. However if you want the extra performance then get the GT for a small bit more money. After that you can OC it to ultra speeds like mine is. Always go for eVGA. The LE only has 12 Pipes i think and the GT and Ultra have 16.
Yeah there's a difference between LE and then the Limited Edition presented by eVGA....but the people have been assuming it's the LE which generally is the more mainstream model opposed to performance.
But like everyone else I still say 6800GT is your best bang for the buck since you can OC it pretty well..
Did some people here forget about me and my plain 6800 with the 16 pipe softmod
