just depends on what you want your system to do. Do you have dual PCI-E slots or just single? if you have dual your mobo most likely supports SLI which means you can run 2 cards and therefore you'd want to go with nvidia. they seem to be the better card for dual setups. and if all that is the case i wouldn't even waste my time with a 6600. just go 6800 they're not much more expensive and you'll be alot happier with it. plus i'm biased towards nvidia because i've always bought nvidia. my last card before i upgraded was an MSI Geforce MX440 64mb graphics card, and with the software that came with it i could overclock the hell out of it and it NEVER overheated and i could play HL2 smoothly on low to medium settings.
