Nice to hear :).

Die 6600GT Die! lol. dunno, just wanted to say that.

Dipdude, how do you find out all the news youuve posted, keep refreshing sites or have live feed going on. :/.
 
Its gonna be fillrate limited... 350x8 vs 500x8 for 6600GT. Too much memory bandwidth, too little fillrate. In this case, its even worse than the x800gt. Atleast that ran at 475MHz.
 
if you see in most games espcecially newer gamees 128mb 6800=+-6600gt 128mb

6800 for todays latest games at playable settings or near that might give say <3% boost so 6600gt can be expected equal to better than 6800xt
