O.K., I know that the 6800GT is twice the card that the 6600GT is (if not more), but I read elsewhere that if you have no larger than a 17" at a maximum resolution of 1280 X 1024, that you will not reap the benefits of the 6800GT. They were saying that you may as well just get the 6600GT and save your money. Is this TRUE?!?
What I'm asking everyone is this: is it just overkill to get the 6800GT running on a 17" max 1280 X 1024?
Also, is an MSI 6800GT any good? I found one in PCIE for $330. I keep wanting a BFG, but the cheapest I've seen it is $399. If MSI is any good, then.....
