While both cards appear to have similar specs and either card would do the job, I would choose the Geforce but then again I'm an Nvidia fan.

Go X800GTO, it's a very good GPU. This isn't an I prefer ATi rebuttal to boxwrench's claim, but I think it will serve you better in the gaming arena. The 6800GS is the budget card for the 6800 series which is equivalent to the X800GT. The X800GTO is a step above the GT and hence a step above the 6800GS.
