Speaking of the 6800GT Video card...I was wondering something. I will be ordering my new pc here in a couple of days and before I do so...is it worth the few extra bucks to get the 6800 256 PCI-E instead of the 6600GT 128 PCI-E? Just wondering which one will give me acutal better performance. I dont mind the price...on those...fine with either one...just want to know if the 6600GT 128MB > or < or = 6800 256MB? And yes I do realize there is a difference in Clock speeds and in Pipelines. Just curious.
Thx
