I currently have a evga 6600 gt agp based and am planning on upgrading my system a bit. Planning on buying a new pci-e mobo, a 3200+ venice, and another stick of ram to dual channel. I was wondering how these three video cards stack up against each other: 6600 gt
6800 gs - the one I want to get
6800 gt
things like : overclockability, loudness, overheating issues, power usage, performance etc..

6800 GS hands down. There is only a few frames of difference between the two, and the GS is about 80 bucks less, 6800GS no doubt about it.

6800GS and 6800GT are equal at stock, but overclocked, the 6800GS beats the 6800GT. 6800GS is pretty much the mid-range card this generation, but if you want a good card, go for a 7800GT.
