Currently I have a P4 2.8ghz @ 3.1 and a 9800 Pro. Games coming out, my 9800 Pro is kind of lagging, especially with a 19inch monitor and wanting to play 1600x1200. So I was thinking of maybe upgrading possibly but my dilema is I don't want to spend a ton of money. I have to cash to buy a 6800GT, but don't really wanna fork 300ish. I was wondering, should I buy a 6800NU and unlock the pipes or just cave in and fork over th extra $100?

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.

ummmm...well..it wont be guratee the 6800nu will unlock..and the 6800nu has a hard time @ 1600x1200 .....I would say the 6800gt will be VERY worth the extra cash if u want to play @ 1600x1200.....and guranteed alot higher clocks and 16 pipes....ur probably gonna regret it with the extra 100 bucks in ur wallet and the 6800nu struggling @ high res b/c of the memory lacking...but ur choice.
