Default hey does anyone no about the XFX GeForce 6800GS

This new 6800 GS model outperforms the 6800 GT and cost less too. Performance is further boosted in this XXX version as the clock speeds have been increased from the default 425MHz core and 1000MHz memory upto 485MHz core and 1100MHz memory making this the quickest 6800 GS card available on the market.

that is what is writen on overclock.co.uk anyone have any info about it its 180 pound do you think it is worth it or should i go for a 7800 gt for 260 pound

the 6800 GS is supposed to be the counterpart of the x1600.. so i think the 7800GTX will be better

he said the 7800gt, not gtx. I'd go with the 6800GS, seems like its more bang for the buck.

say go with the 6800GS, over $100 cheaper and therer really isnt much of a difference besides the fact that the 7800gt has 8 more pipelines.
