|
|
"We're going to get right to the point here. The new GeForce 6800 GS is a winner. With an MSRP of $249 this card currently has an unbeatable price / performance ratio. "

There’s ample supply of them and they simply kick the crap out of the competition at the same price level. Pixel Shader 3.0 is started to make its way into more titles and NVIDIA’s release of PureVideo functionality before the year’s end clinched the deal as this being the 'must-have' graphics card by gamers everywhere."

|
|
