“It was mid 2004 when NVIDIA released it’s young rascal, the GeForce 6800 GT. It offered staggering performance!. We are now a sturdy year away from that first GT release and a couple of things have changed in that time-frame. Most importantly, we noticed a massive shift from the AGP platform towards PCI-Express. Yes, can you imagine that was just roughly a year ago ? Today NVIDIA introduces something new … tagged with a sales price of roughly 250 EUR – 275 USD for the 256 MB models there now is another product available in that very broad range of Series 6 products from NVIDIA. Today’s product is the GeForce 6800 GS, feature wise 100% similar to any GeForce 6800 product yet performance and pricing wise it sits right between the 6800 and 6800 GT.
