Um, 6600GT?

[Jakemaster]

Okay, I haven't seen a gt in the stores lately.  Did nvidea change something.  I only see 6600.  

[congo]

No, they didn't change, stores stock 6600's because the distributor points out that the profit margins are higher, buyer beware. Find a better store.

[Jakemaster]

ya, Ill go to frys when the time comes.  They have every card you can buy.

If all else fails: Newegg

[Jakemaster]

no, if all else faild Ill just get a x700 pro

[congo]

X700 isn't really a good card, but an X800GT is, aim for that if you get a radeon, they are supposed to be a tad better than a 6600gt, and I saw a sapphire one for the same price as a cheap 6600GT.

[-sam-]

Yes.. get a better store.. there should be enough GT

It's really strange that ATI still hasn't sorted the driver issue. Mind you, the times that I have installed ATI cards and drivers on other's machines, and my own for test purposes, I didn't have any problems, but I haven't used them over a long timeframe and several apps.

No idea what you guys are talking about as I have never had any problem with ATi drivers

Get a Sapphire X800 Pro

Get a Sapphire X800 Pro

Sure if you can afford it, they are one step up in genre, similar in performance and price to NVidias 6800GT. Still fairly expensive.

Sorry I ment the GT (school is bad for the mind)  :-/

I have a leadtec 6600gt and it is great.  I t even came with pandoras tomorrow and some other game.  I have had no problems with it.  The card definately has my vote.

[Jakemaster]

Ill probably get the 6600gt when I have the money.  That is, unless I get enough for a 7800GT lol!  That would be nice.

No, seriously, I am saving money for RAM, I need more, and Im almost there!  THen when Hannukah comes Ill probably get enough money for a card.  Or I can wait till around June, cause Im taking the SAT again, and my mom said she would get me a 6600GT if I got a 32 on the ACT and a 2200 on the SAT.  I got a 33 on the ACT, but I came up short with a 2050 on the SAT.
