Cheap AGP -- BFG 6600 GT or Evga 6800?

[foamingpanda]

I've poked around with video cards for a while (we poor people hate PCI express cards, mind you) and come to the conclusion that one of these cards would be the best. Both look pretty good, but I can't tell which is the better card. Both are about the same price too.

Thoughts?

Any advice for the poor =(?

Review those benchmarks and make up your own mind. The 6800 is 9% faster on average in FEAR compared to the 6600GT. Also, the 6800 is 8% faster in Doom 3 compared to the 6600GT.

Both cards are priced priced the same ($200)

I would get the 6800 and overclock it.
