I was looking at the 6600. I guess I just decided not to be cheap, and go for it.

ok final decision on Video Card....

I wanted a 6800 GT but im thinking of getting a 6800 or a 6600GT to save a few bucks (more so the 6800 then the 6600GT)

Im looking at this 6800 GT for 300
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814150091

and this 6800 for 230 (rebate on zipzoomfly)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814127173

So any advice? (they have to be pci-xpress as well)

I just bought a 6600 GT it was only $160 on new egg for an XFX model. From what i read you can play doom 3, Battlefield 2, far cry, pretty much any new game on it no problem. I just bought it to tide me over till i graduate next year, then im upgrading my comp to a intel dual core with dual 7800gtx in sli mode. :)

Isn't the 6600 GT a PCI card, or is it AGP?

you are either going to find it in a pci-express or agp varity. you would most likely be looking for the agp model.

just to clear things up here, you can bet a 6600GT in PCI-express or AGP 8x, you can also get both in the 6800GT model as well.
