With some simple clocking that GT is now an Ultra, and your $100 dollars the wiser. :thumbup:

6800 Ultra... The GT is a great card, but the Ultra is faster. :thumbup:

Thr GT can be overclocked to ultra speeds , but you have to know what you are doing

So saving in the short run could come back to bite you in the ass if you overclock your GT and *****it up

If you can afford it and you want Nvidia then go for the Ultra :thumbup:

You are all wrong!


The best NVIDIA card from the 6800 series would be a GeForce 6800 Ultra Extreme

The only thing differs from the Ultra version is; Extreme having an improved fill rate, (Much more improved. by 1000 MTexels/s more then the ultra version)Means, more complexity in a scene thus giving a better performance.

Regarding these days NVIDIA cards, here you go :

PCI EXPRESS = GeForce 6200

PCI EXPRESS/AGPx8 = GeForce 6600
PCI EXPRESS/AGPx8 = GeForce 6600 GT

AGPx8 = GeForce 6800 LE
AGPx8 = GeForce 6800
AGPx8 = GeForce 6800 GT
AGPx8 = GeForce 6800 Ultra
AGPx8 = GeForce 6800 Ultra Extreme

:thumbup:

Overclocking is simple and safe.

if you want to buy a new GPU, and you don't want to give a lot of money, go for the 6800gt, its very fast, and i guess people dont need more, (you overclock it and it goes like wouhou!)
