Geforce 6800 GS

I want to get a 6800 gs but dont know which one to get from newegg

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...ubmit=Property

that link shows the ones that newegg has (some are out of stock)
but i dont know which one to get, I know that the core clock is higher on the XFX one and that looked the best to me but I'm not sure.

What exactly is a GS? Is it just like a LE?

no the gs is a 12 pipe card with very high clocks...the performance is about the same as a 6800 GT and costs much less

but the 6800gt has 16 pipes, surely this means its superior to the 12pipe gs edition?

the gs is better than the gt in some games, and the gs is not as good the gt in some games, but they differ by very little in most games, and the gs kicks more ass cuz its cheaper, but seriously, which one is best?

GS is the better bang for the buck, no doubt. The 6800gt isn't even in production anymore...
