    6800 Ultra or X800XT P.E.

    From what i've seen x800 performs better as of right now. But people seem to forget, nvidia drivers are upgraded for all of there cards. So when new drivers come out, my 3 year old ti4200 still gets a performace boost. I think in a few months, through drivers alone the 6800 will pull ahead.
