Due to me never being around to get the most of it, I've sold my 6800GT to my mate, for

OMG!

How is that possible that you didn't notice the difference?

Good question Congo, but, as I say, I've noticed no difference at all !      ???

Certainly a difference when running benchmarks, but,in "real world" useage, as I say, it seems just fine!

Congo the only difference between those two cards are their clock speeds which is only about 50Mhz between them. So not seeing a difference is not that supprising.

Rofl theres more than clock speed the LE has 8 pixel pipes and slow memory the LE is about the same speed as a 6600gt.  get your facts straight  :P

Regulars here will recall, however, that when I previously owned my LE, I "unlocked it" giving it 12 pipes, also, I overclocked it.
The same tweakes have been applied again.

Theres little between the GT & a well tweaked LE, as these benchies show.

ahh cool that explains it, personaly I would have kept the faster card but I'm a speed freak  :P

Well as those arnt accurate, as thats 3DMark01 which is way outdated you need to look at a 3D05 bench.

GT:4987

So as you can see, there is a difference, but not a huge one.
