XFX 6600GT vs ASUS N6800GT

[helmie]

Hi,
I found this on ebay today:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ASUS-Geforce-68...754895131QQcategoryZ40159QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

And I thought ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Only £130 with delivery (If he ships to UK, have to wait and see)

Anyway, Is it a lot better than an XFX 6600GT?

How much could I sell a 2 month old (Never Overclocked) XFX 6600GT for? I still own my mum £100 for my computer parts, so im a little tight for cash.

The 6800GT is much better than a 6600GT. I'd say you could probably sell a 6600GT for $100 max.

idk, the 6600gt is still a good card though, good clocks, etc...
I say hang on to it longer, until the next card comes out then pick up like a 7800GT cause the price will drop on those.

You coudl get more the that for a 6600GT in the UK. Id say around the £80 mark.

Doesnt matter now, I was going on to buy it and it was sold

If i see another one that cheap Im gonna get it

EDIT:

Is the 6800 GS less powerfull than the GT?

Since its cheaper, im asuming that it is, but not much?

 

[Rambo]

The GS isn't much worse than the GT.

 

[elmarcorulz]

Becareful though, if your importing from America you could be stung with import tax. Which is why i only import computer goods from countries in the EU

 

[helmie]

Damn, I forgot about that. Ive bought RC parts before, hit with a £20 fee

Mind you, its still far cheaper than the UK price for it.

EDIT: If the guy with the GS does ship to the UK, does anyone want to buy a XFX 6600GT? I would be able to sell it untill i got the new card, but it would be nice to have a 6800.

EDIT (Again ) Heres an example, that GS in the US is around £120 if i bid, heres a plain old GS, reference nVidia card - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GeForce-6800-...ryZ90710QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

The GS is probably better value than the GT. It's only got 12/5 pipelines/shaders compared to the GT's 16/6, but is clocked higher. It's performance is only slightly lower than the GT, but it's much cheaper.

Oh, and the AGP version can be unlocked to 16/6
