from the toms hardware VGA charts it seems that the 7600GS you were looking at is ahead of the 6800GS. so the 7600GS you were looking at is a better buy, especially seeing as they're cheaper on pricespy. i have an XFX 6800GS myself (albiet AGP). it's not bad, but if the 7600GS, get that.
(oh, and i'm not trying to order you around. i write opinions, not orders )
thats a good point. Id rather get the not so powerful GS and have some money spare incase the computer tries to blow up, or launch itself into space and I have to fix it
