I just need to know which one produces a better 6800, a non gt or ultra. Im going to buy this card and have it narrowed down to these two.

Thanks in advance!
 
If you are willing to wait for this monster to get back in stock at Newegg, GET IT. I repeat, GET IT as soon as it appears on the site, you will not get any better for the price. Also, ignore the info on the card on Newegg, it is wrong, this thing is basically a Ultra with a downclocked GPU.(that can't hit 400 Mhz unfortunately)
 
I was wondering If I should wait for this card, and it looks like Im going to. thanks!
 
When I used to use nVidia based cards, I never had any trouble with eVGA cards. They were always reliable. Asus was another very reliable name for me.
 
I would go with the Leadtek. Unless you plan to get a NV5 cooler.

Leadtek is one of the few companies that actually makes a heatsink for their cards that is semi okay. Companies like Evga make really crappy heatsinks. Trust me you will want to get a 20 pound sledge and bust the stock heatsink into oblivion.
 
Yeah my leadtek fan on my card owns...It is really good, i can overclock really well and still have really low temps on my video card for load settings, like 58
 
the leadtech is about $50 right? you can get a NV5 for $25 and gives better cooling than leadtech's stock
