    6800

    Looking at pci-e graphic cards and i see that there are no 6800 128 mb cards. Do they only exist for agp? Anyone know if there will be in the future?
    Also is it possible tp flash a GT to Ultra?

    No idea. You could ask it on an nVidia forum, like nvnews.net. Unless of course you've been banned there because of spamming.

      No, you cannot flash a GT to Ultra that I have heard of. You can overclock them to Ultra speeds very easily.

        Yeah, you can flash a GT to Ultra speeds. Check this thread http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=33437

        And I think they are still in the works for the 6800 PCI-e cards. I think at least the 6600's are out.

          The 6600's are out, sold a couple of Gigabyte 6600GT's (PCI-E) myself last week.

            I am seriously thinking of getting a GF6600 GT agp if they will come with 256MB ram onboard... i know it may not make much difference but i am thinking of getting a 1600x1200 LCD monitor later and running at that res might slow down a card with only 128MB cannot believe i am saying this though

              seems that a GF6600(no suffix) comes with 256MB ram onboard.. it is possible to flash it or overclock it to GT speeds?

                  i suppose i fit your sig

                  ah well, i prefer the guys' opinions here i suppose. I have tried the nvidia forums.. but the 6xxx series on agp are still new and not many have it.. so i will wait for the cards to be in widespread use... as i can still afford to wait.

                    The amount of RAM on a video card has nothing to do with resolution these days. It's about storing textures, which will take up that space at any resolution.

                      128mb will limit the ability to use AA at high resolutions, especially with NV cards.
