i have no idea what the gt and le stands for but in this comparison i believe that the 6600 gt wins just. tho if you were able to get a plain 6800 it would slightly be better then the 6600 gt. but any way the 6600 gt would be best.

Try a different brand than the XFX. Heard stories about tech support......

LE - Light Edition (slower clock speed and memory speed)

GT is a better choice. Just look at a different brand.

I got mine from BFG, the over clocked version, so far so good but right now I get the dreaded NV4_DISP error but I got this before I installed the card.
