Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Refurb. Leadtek 6600GT PCIe 128MB. It's a really nice card. I played through HL2 on it @ 1024x768 with all the eye candy maxed. It has the 1Ghz RAM for sweet speedy loving.
This is the card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814122201

Well I just got a new 6600GT and it was DOA. Called Leadtek and got a cross-ship. Shipped same day, got it the next. Popped in the card. Everything is perfect. In my past 5 years of buying Abit products I've never had an RMA go so smoothly. Abit makes you paypal them money to get a cross...
I'm pretty sure the 6600GT actually beats the 6800le, most if not all the time. A 6800nu would beat a 6600GT though, but not by a lot. I'll try and find a comparison.
I've going to try to get AMEX to give me some of that Best Value Guarantee love on some equipment I bought from Newegg in Nov. Do they run print ads anywhere?
I don't get why you're jumping all over tranCendenZ. He posted an well thought out opinion and posted proof. It's something I agree with and I'm an nvidia and an ati !!!!!!. The ATi HDR has horrible horizontal smearing and is way overblown, with a huge red/orange overtone in outdoor areas...
I guess I need to see HDR in action before making a judgement but from looking at the screenshots I can see a few things that look wrong:
- Light blooms (glow) looks way overblown.
- Seems like the light is seeping into areas of the image it shouldn't, especially on the horizontal access...
