get the 6800. i love my 6800, it's a great card. plus you can unlock the extra pipelines (i did) to squeeze some more speed out of it :evil:

how much can you oc/unlock the 6800 safely?
just curious...
i unlocked it to full 16 pipes (GT core) and i run quite safely with stock cooling at 380/800 (this is moderate...i know i can go higher) from 325/700.
its not possible with the 6600GT because it has no pipelines to unlock. its possible with the 6800nu because it has 12 pipelines enabled (unlike the 6800GT's 16). i just used rivatuner to unlock it.
