6600 GT AGP 8x ?

kabob, the 6600GT is likely to be the best value for money. I've heard that the AGP version will be slightly cheaper than the PCIE version (but that's unconfirmed). Personally I couldn't wait, so I have purchased a 6800 (nu); similar performance (slightly better in most cases) but not quite...

Best HL2 upgrade for an AMD XP 2400+

Personally my price limit is AU$500, so that's either the 6800nu or the 6600GT (for myself). lnin0 may have a different budget. I'm inclined to agree - the 6600GT does offer a better price/performance ratio than the 6800nu. The 6800nu is similar in performance or marginally faster than the...

Best HL2 upgrade for an AMD XP 2400+

What is everyone's thoughts on the plain old 6800, or on the 6600GT, from a price/performance perspective? Here (in Australia), we have the following pricing situation: Cheapest 6600GT (128Mb DDR3): $335 (= 48% ) Cheapest 6800 (128Mb DDR1): $460 (= 66% ) Cheapest 6800GT...

Will a 6600GT require me to upgrade my power supply?

There are several Shuttle XPC owners who are running the 6800GT with a 250W SilentX PSU, and this seems to work fine for them. Here's a thread on an SFF forum that goes into a little more detail. Short answer - as others have indicated, most likely not. From what I can gather, the...

Hybrid 6800GT / 6800

Not quite - the eVGA card sounds similar to the ASUS v9999 Gamer's Edition (fast memory with a 6800 standard GPU). The card I am looking at has slow memory with a 6800GT GPU. However, after posting I did find this thread. Sorry everyone, I should have checked first!

Hybrid 6800GT / 6800

Hi all, For those of you who don't know, Asus has an unusual lineup with their 6800-based cards. Apparently this is due to a mix-up in the specifications before the cards were manufactured. One of their current lineup is as follows (it may be named differently in the US, but this is NOT the...

6600 GT AGP 8x ?

I have been making some enquiries as to the availability of the 6600GT in AGP. Here is a very bad translation from a German site: The full text is available here. The distributors (in Australia) don't know when these cards are due. I have emailed Sparkle, and they will be releasing...
