$249.99 for 6600 GT 128mb APG?

Was I not extremely overpriced?! I bought it from Micro Center. What's stranger, is the day I went, I called in to make sure they had it in stock, and they even told me it was only $190 or something. I don't know why I accepted the really high price, but I'm mad now ~>\ I'm returning it tomorrow and buying a 6800.

If you bought that NOW then yeah thats overpriced. If you bought that right when it came out ... not so overpriced

You should possibly consider the X800Pro since it runs off GDDR3 (some 6800NUs do but they are stupidly expensive) and you can unlock it and overclock it

Course u can unlock 6800NUs but lack of GDDR3 will limit any memory overclocks
