RE: Gfx card
For my new computer im going to buy a GeForce 6800GT 256MB

But!, for 312Euros you can buy the ATI Radeon X800XL 256MB (PCI-E) which is pratically the same as 6800GT.

I chose 6800GT because my parents didnt give me a limit for the cost of the PC and as i have an ATI, i want to try nVidia.

if he overclocks without any idea what he's doing and without half decent cooling then he'll probably fuck it up =P

Dont 6800GT and 6800Ultra have the same heatsinks? If you overclock it to 6800Ultra speeds you should be fine shouldnt you?

I know, I was saying for him to find a few good deals, since finding out the memory (which is the most advertised) then go through the rest of the details;

Then post your findings here, and everyone can go through the finer details of the specification of the card.


Just to save times, tbh.
