It wouldnt hurt

depending on how much?

 

[suthernkid]

how much what?

Not worth it, IMO. The 6800gs isn't far behind the 7800gt. Also, it's based on the price difference in the current retail prices, not what you bought it for. So 1) You'd be paying and 2) You'd have to wait for shipping.

EDIT: Sorry, thought you said 7800gt.

So I guess only my second point is valid.

I'm thinking of buying a 7600GT when my next paycheck comes in.

Well yes my 6800GS is one 350/1000 andthe 7600GT is at 580/1500!!! thats crazy, especialy with the step up would be too much im guessing, so i would

 

[suthernkid]

i know! i saw those clocks omg i cant wait..i guess i have to pay for shipping annd possibly a fee for the serial sticker i cut off for the rebate

but it looks worth it

Where do you see this? The 6800GS is quite far behind the 7800GT. The 6800GT/Ultra are pretty far behind the 7800GT!

Like I just said, it's based on the current retail price, not what you bought it for.

You would pay $70.

My god, I am an idiot tonight. I think I might have to just stop posting. I'm misinforming, misquoting, and mislinking everywhere. I just linked a 6800 vanilla.

Everyone, seriously, ignore me.

Sorry bout that.

It's what you paid for it, not the current prices. I got my 7900GTX for 150, not 170.

Yes yes, we've already established that I have no idea what I'm saying tonight.

 

[selectodude]

It's okay, we all have those nights.

it does not matter what NewEgg's price for the 7600GT is, because you pay the difference between what you paid for the first card, and eVGA's price for the new card. The PCIe 6800GS is $270 on the eVGA website, so expect the 7600GT to be in the $300 range. Meaning you would have to pay $100.
