Enthusiasts expected an across-the-board improvement over the nv3x series, and they got it. The 6800 Non-Ultra outperforms the previous generation of video cards quite comfortably, and despite the "slow" memory, it can handle AA and AF very capably. The lack of a vertex unit and rendering quad really doesn’t kill this card’s performance as much as one would think, its overclocking performance is great, it runs cool, the cooling solution is well-thought-out and quiet, and the newer Forceware drivers provide awesome performance. The software bundle is what one can expect for this great of a card priced at only $299 (basically just the bare essentials) This card is definitely worth the money.
