Introduction

GeForce 6800 GS is the latest mid-range graphics chip from nVidia, competing directly with Radeon X800 GTO from ATI. In this review we will compare not only GeForce 6800 GS against its main competitor, but we will also compare its performance against other GPUs available on the market.
