Good call on the 6800 but you might consider the X800Pro as it ships with GDDR3 memory ... the reason i suggest this is that both the 6800NU and X800Pro (which have 12 pipes) can be unlocked to have 16 pipes and essentially be a 6800GT or X800XL/XT. An additional difference between the 6800NU and the 6800GT is the lack of GDDR3 memory (which limits memory overclocks)
