Ge-force is a card I had for about a year.And it has not dissapointed me once.Playing games like ,hl-2,doom-3, and the new FEAR ,and being able to turn all the settings up to 16x aa ,af to x4 with everything maxed out ,considering theres a new driver wich I needed for fear(ALWAYS CHECK NVIDIA FOR NEW DRIVERS).Anyways BFG has great a support line and quality products .Stick with the GT version and just overclock it, it's cheaper and will do the same job.Also,buy 256mb version,the 128mb is nice but you will get more out of the 256 card.

All of the 6800 GT cards are just...

Strengths: Fast card, Lifetime warranty, Premium tech support, Nice looks

Weakness: Dual fans are a little loud, No software bundle

All of the 6800 GT cards are just under clocked Ultras for a hundred dollars less (retail). BFG sets them selves apart by overclocking this card a bit right out of the box for you. This way you do not have to deal with it if you are not into OCing and you still get the added speed for one hundred dollars less. Also, the lifetime warranty and premium tech support are an added bonus. In the looks...

In the looks department, the image shown on pricegrabber is not accurate. The card has a chrome heat sink shield with two fans that have soft blue lights in them. I am not a case moder, but I have to admit this card looks very cool inside my rig.

Did I mention it was fast? :)

Contents.... You get a nice box...

Strengths: Very Fast,Cheaper than an ultra,nice looking stock cooler,good price for 6800gt,free lifetime warrenty,24hr support line,pre overclocked by 20mhz

Weakness: Needs a good quality psu,lite bundle no games,. needs a powerfull system/processor to get the most out of it.

Contents.... You get a nice box and driver cd.sticker and a quick install manual and guide + a dvi to vga connector. While the package itself contains little other than the essentials to get started this does lower the costs and most people who are spending this much will already have the games they want to play.

While the package itself contains little other than the essentials to get started this does lower the costs and most people who are spending this much will already have the games they want to play.

Card....

The card i got was the blue pcb and heatpipe type cooler with 2 blue led fans it the card and cooler itself looks quite nice and would go well in a modded case. The 2 small fans on it may be a little loud for some people.

This card is fast hl2 1280x1024 4aa 16af with playable framerates? no problem, This card is easy capable of doing 1600x1200 in modern games to (doom3 etc)

A word of warning ,this card likes a good psu mine is an ageing 350watt no name brand and after about 4 hrs in nfsu2 it reset when i took out a few fans just to check it ran the game fine for ages,after i brought a new psu (tagan 480w) make sure u have a good quality psu from a good brand maker eg enermax,antec,tagan

Also another thing this card loves system speed, the faster your cpu and overall system the bigger the benefit you will see, you will still see a benefit in a low end system only it won't be as much.

I think this is a very good value bundle that cuts down on the cost and does what it is advertised to do. The gt itself is also a very good value for money card that in most cases can be overclocked to 6800 ultra speeds with no problems. (at ur own risk)

ultra speeds or not this is a very fast card.

I am very impressed with this card...

Strengths: Quick, crisp, and smooth graphics; FULL lifetime warranty; best price for 6800GT

Weakness: No bundled games

I am very impressed with this card so far. The "Doom 3 approved" sticker on the box doesn't lie! I've been running Doom 3 at 1024x768 in Ultra mode with no lag whatsoever; I will up that to 1280x1024 when I get my 19" monitor and see how that goes. One item worth noting is that the card covers one PCI slot next to the AGP port, so if you have a lot of expansion cards, make sure your motherboard...

One item worth noting is that the card covers one PCI slot next to the AGP port, so if you have a lot of expansion cards, make sure your motherboard has an adequate amount of PCI slots. Best Buy has the best deal on this card ($399); all other brands of this same graphics chipset are $50 higher or more. All-in-all, this is hands-down the best video card I have ever used.

Nothing I have thrown at this card...

Strengths: Incredibly fast. Dual Monitor support.

Weakness: No bundled games

Nothing I have thrown at this card has been able to slow it down. The speed really is incredible. Plus I picked up at one of Best Buy's 10% off weekends for only 350.00. It would have been nice if they bundled a game like some fo thier older cards do.
