Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
new card...

It's about 15-30% faster than a 9800XT if that helps.
If you already have a 9800PRO, I wouldn't say its worth upgrading due to the money you'd lose. A 6800GT would be a more noticable upgrade for a 9800PRO owner.
On the other hand, if you are wondering about whether its worth spending an extra $100 over the 9800PRO for if you don't have either yet, its definitely worth the extra cash for the 6800. i.e. if building a new PC the 6800 is definitely a better bet than the 9800pro.

After cruising some different reviews my answer is barely. If your question was more along the lines of, "Would this be a good upgrade from what I already have?" The answer would be a definite no.
