My main concern is which one is better for the price/performance ratio? I've heard the 7800Gs is not much better than the 6800xt, but would like some other opinions before i buy. Thank You:mrgreen:

The 7900 is quite a bit faster. But the 6800 is cheaper.

That's what i thought, kinda, LOL. Still gonna wait for some more opinions though. Thanks

Well I have a 6600GT in my current system at the moment. It runs some of the top games out there like Oblivion on med-high settings around 35 fps. I've heard the 6800 Is a good card but I have yet to hear anything really major about the 7900. Looking at the specs of both, I see that the 7900 is quite a bit faster. In performance ratio I would have to say the 7900. Just a guess though because you can't be totally sure unless you have had expereince with both cards. I'm only average in knowledge of hardware so yeah.

6 series runs games
7 series runs them well
