Worth the Upgrade?

[SXT14]

Hey all,
I have a 6600gt

and have found some good deals on the 6800

My question is it worth upgrading?

Thanks all

not at all

if you truely want to upgrade get a series 7 geforce or wait for the dx10 cards.

Its not if you're talking about the vanilla 6800. If you're asking about a GT or Ultra then there is a tangible performance boost there but what kinda price deal are you getting?

If you situation 7800gs is a definitely leap but that's well over $200. 6800GT or Ultra or the en vogue x8xx series cards ati is clearancing are decent incremental step-ups. The fact that the x800xl is only $113.05 USD makes it something you make wish to consider.

Again, unless you're getting a 6800GT or Ultra for less than say $125 or so I wouldn't do it
