Default Which GFX card?

I was going to get a X800 Pro but for $50 cheaper i just saw i could get a GeForce 6800 GT,

now the 6800GT performs according to benchmarks slightly better then the X800 Pro,

And i can turn the 6800GT into a 6800 Ultra with a bios flash/overclock, but i can turn the x800 pro into an x800 XT PE with a bios flash also, then the x800 XT would perform slightly higher then the 6800 ultra. lol

but the 6800gt has the pixel shaders 3.0 which the x800's dont, so when games start using that later down the road, the 6800gt is going to do a bit more for me then.

right now im leaning towards the 6800GT, any opinions?

I live in your hand, so I can't really suggest anything at this point... you need to move me up to your mind again.

UNDER my foot.

dont think you get a free ride ontop.

and no, would be pointless for me to get a psp first, i wouldnt use it. i'd like wipeout, but i wouldnt be spending the money on many new games, i really only want a psp to play old snes games and such on a handheld. plus play em online on a handheld. hehe

I'd go with the 6800GT as well. To me it sounds like a better buy at $50 cheaper.
