[Pc_Support] GeForce 6800GS PCIe 256MB DDR3 cards around $200

[Bryan J. Smith]

Just FYI, the GeForce 6800GS is now becoming available.  It's
basically a native PCIe version of the original 6800, fabbed
by TSMC at 0.11um instead of the original 0.13um.  They run
only $200, typically with HDTV-out.

Definitely a nice option between a GeForce 6600GT with only
128MB DDR3 (unless you go with the lower GeForce 6600 256MB
DDR, although reports are that XFX is using DDR2 for a
performance boost), and the newer GeForce 7800GT 256MB DDR3
which start at $325.
