cool, my XFX 6800GS unlocked perfectly and overclocked to 420/1.1.

That's great! Is your an AGP?

My Ultra will do 450/1180. That's great on a GS. :)

[Roadhog]

yes its AGP.

[jAkUp]

Yea the GS should be faster than the Ultra when unlocked and OC'd :)

But I do not see it beating a OCed ultra. ;)

[Roadhog]

it beats it price wise by far. :P Bang for your buck.

Yea... I guess it depends on what its oc'd to (nana2)

If they made the 6800GS AGP on the same chip as they make the 6800GS PCIe ,then it would be a 6800ultra.

So it's a gamble if you buy one. That it's not a defective one like the review says.

yeh, they got corruption and artifacts with their unlocked card, not worth it to me, i wouldn't count on being able to unlock it

Been researching for a couple months, finally ordered the BFG 6800 GS AGP today, should get it in a few days, will be a big jump from my old fx5200. this should keep me going till next year when i build my own, no more oem....
installed an enermax 535w today, no hitches except oem case is a little small for all the wires...

I have a XFX 6800gs and am thinking of enabling extra pipelines. Did you have any issues wih yours? Was performance much better? Cheers
