Best Graphics card for £60-£70

i paid 250 for my 6600gt two years ago.

Strange ... according to nVidia, they were relased just over a year ago

Quote:

Also you can unlock the 6800 to the GT..... am i right?

Depends on the exact card

However you wont be hitting the high clocks due to the voltage used on the RAM

for 6800 it is ok, but not x800

Fanboysm?

yea but u can unlock it to 16 pipes.

Unlocking ATi cards is arguably easier (and they all use the low voltage memory allowing for higher clocks)

For all intents and purposes, yes however do be aware of technicalities
