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

[4_Series_Scania]

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Well as those arnt accurate, as thats 3DMark01 which is way outdated you need to look at a 3D05 bench.

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