I've got about $150 (maybe $200 pushing it), and I was thinking of buying a 6800 GT off of ebay. Then I read a post where people said the 7600 GT was better than the 6800. But what I've been basing my decision on was this: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/132.
I can find the 7600 GT for about the same price (maybe even lower) as the 6800, and I could probably snag a 7800 for a little over $200. Looking at that article, I would say the 6800gt is better than the 7600gt; the 7600 is only 128bit, and the 6800 is 256, and the 7600 has 12 pipes instead of 16. Could someone tell me if the 7600 gt is actually better than the 6800gt?
Also, would getting a 7800gt instead of a 6800gt be worth the extra $50 or $60?
Thanks
