Well do your worst. [DOOR SHUTS!} Hey, he locked the door.

i will soon be building and customizing my own computer and i just wanted to know how much the new geforce 6800, geforce 6800 GT and geforce 6800 Ultra cost in Canandian.
i have have decicded to buy one of these cards. im sorta of favouring towards the GT cause it will give me good FPS for all the new games( like doom 3 and halo PC) I also want to know if buying the Ultra will give me better performance then the GT( i dont mind forking over the extra money that it oviously costs.) please answer me cause im not sure which one to get. and dont tell me to go buy a radeon card cause im set on gettin one of these. thanks in advance.

they cost from 400-600. the gt is the best bang for your buck right now so i woud go with it if you cant fidn it for a reasonable price.

p.s. get the BFG version

p.s.s. i have seen the Gt form 400 all the way up to 600 from so very greedy merchants

Try futureshop.com I think that's Canada's version of besy buy. You can always get a 6800GT and overclock to Ultra speeds.

A 6800Ultra in canada??? Thats one of the funniest things Ive heard. You can barely get one in the states. And yes, I am from Alberta, so I have a pretty good idea bout what im talkin bout. As for prices, I think $700 should be the ticket ($525 US= around $700cdn). Dead meat has the right idea going on, and about FutureShop. Only recently did they start offering NVIDIA cards for sale, and even then they are only the 5200FX and the 5700LE. They do not sell the new gen of NVIDIA cards.

Well do your worst. [DOOR SHUTS!} Hey, he locked the door.

actually there are bestbuy stores near me in canada. and after your guys telling me about them i looked into it and they do have geforce 6800 cards.

also LET ME LIVE maybe you dont have anygood stores around you. also future shop is a good store but they dont have the selection bestbuy does. so one day ill head over to my best buy and pick me up a card. thanks for your guys help.

but theres one thing that i want to know.
you guys said the geforce 6800 GT could be overclocked to match the ULTRA in speed. well the ULTRA cards that they are selling at Best Buy are also overclocked so does that make them much better then a GT even if its also overclocked. just something i want know before i buy me a new card with my load of money.

the other cool thing about the ultra is that it has that dual card feature. so if i ever wanted to i could get another card a run both cards at the same time in my computer for tremendous graphics. good thing i have the money to dish out. after more researche ive found out that the radeon x800 xp se is a little more powerful then the gefroce ultra but it doesnt have the dula card feature so im oing to get an ultra.
