I have had enough, and I have wasted 9 days of my life trying to decide which Graphic card to purchase. I need to buy it within a week so I have to make up my mind now.
I am more inclined to buying the 6800 LE because of its 256-bit memory interface and I am quite sure that more pipes will be unlockable. This is another link for the 6800LE.
Give me your views one last time, and then I can safely say that everybody at TE helped me buy my rig
If ur gonna go unlocking way …sure thr’s a hope of u getting a better card…but still as posted in the othr threads the unlocked 12pp in comparison to 6600gt is smewht about same…its just the 256-bit memory interface…
Also with the 6800LE you will be getting normal ddr memory and with the gainward 6600GT glh you will be getting Gddr3 memory with guaranteed overclockability. So my vote still goes for the 6600GT for reliable performance out of the box, although if you want to take some chances then go ahead with the 6800LE and try unlocking it.
Mate, if you have seen the reviews posted earlier you might have noticed similar performance between a 6800 NU and a 6600 GT with 6800 doing better in Pixel hungry games, and 6600 GT doing better in texture heavy games. 6800LE at stocks would be bad + A big factor I will look at is warranty, if gainward offers 3 years warranty take it blindly.
Technically it does void warranty but thats if they find out.
Very much possible, as they might be closing off bad pipes in 6800 NU and might be selling as 6800 LE, infact a lot of 9800se were sold these ways 50% to be exact.
Yup go for it, besides the golden sample sports VIVO capabilities also, the bundle consists of windvd5 and driver cd with expertool, no games i think. and the price is just right…
What about the Leadtek Winfast A6600 GT TDH ? Same specs. Will check price. They are offering me home delivery in Goa and payment by cheque after delivery.
This is very important, as I will not have to dispatch the payment and sit and cross my fingers that it arrives. I can even ask them to install and test the card before I pay.
Whatever the performance it offers, this is a one-of -its-kind offer.
3-year warranty with SC : PT and POP : SOT bundled. What more to ask for ?
The performance offered by it is also amongst the best ! The cooling is also amongst the better ones and the game bundle looks sweet. This would be my next choice after the gainward
@anishcool :Usually the Mediatech’s Delhi Branch guys want to make that extra 4% for themselves.. All the taxes r incl. in their MRP ; in other words 11750 shud b the final price that u shud pay & there shouldn b any tax over it…
