    I think you'll find that any card worth having will require at least one power connection. My 6800GT needs two.

    !! zoiks!

    actually I notice on some 6600gt specs they are 128bit interface, so on that basis the 9800pro with a 256bit interface is faster...yes?

    bear in mind that some 9800pro's are 128 bit too!! just keep your eye on the specs of of whichever one you buy
