yeah I found that PCI-E geforce 6800GT are considably more expensive then the agp couterpart. Which I find strange since 6600GT pci-e are less money.
Thats because the 6800GT started as AGP and ported to PCIe and the 6600GT started as PCIe and ported to AGP.

If you looked at the pci-e 6800 ultra they insane over $600.
What I meant by the comment is that I can get those cards for that price -- maybe cheaper -- and in CAD -- without much in the way of special deals...

What exactly was the issue so I may be aware of it just in case
Roughly speaking, it was inadequate to cool or something like that. It was quite a minor problem if i recall
