    Personally I'd keep the 6800GT cos it'll do everything well. If the 850 is the one you got cheap from Dabs I'd sell it now when its new and will still fetch a premium price. Bottom line is that the 850 is the better card overall though.

    Well both are fantatsic cards so your already a winner. The x850 is currently the best performing single card but the 6800gt is definately no slouch. Depends on your situation- sell the card you can get the best price for.

    What the rest of your spec?
