Not sure if I can ask this question in this forum... hopefully it's not against the rules.

I was looking into the BFG 6800GT video cards that are being sold here, as well as elsewhere, but I can't find a current price to tell if what I'm getting is worth it.

Can anyone tell me what the value is of these cards now? Newegg is still selling 6800GT's for $179 retail, but I don't know if it is truly a comparable card. Any help?

Thanks.
 
Are they decent cards? Should I just buy a single 7k card? Or is buying two of these worth the $200 that I'd spend?
 
I don't think it's worth it. You can find 7600GT's (which are faster) for $100 to $125 nowadays, and for $200 you can get a 7900GT or an X1950 Pro, both of which should be at least as effective than two 6800GT's in SLI and more effective in newer games.
 
Yea I am rocking a 6800 gt still, but I got it back when it was 330 bucks. If you are actually buying a new card for your system, then a 7600 GT would be better given that its faster and its price.
 
Of course they are good ,and a good deal too ? good your making a wise decision !.
