Great decision Mike, I think I'm buying a Inno 3D Geforce 6800GT tommorow if my girlfriend doesn't kill me first.
I found it for 4000:- SEK here in Malmö.

It is, but think of this a positive, now when you upgrade your CPU and mobo you'll get some free extra performance from your 3D departement

Thats true, the only concern I have though is that Nvidia don't realese new and WHQL cert. drivers as ATI does.

Question:

I ordered the regular X800 XT not the PE.

I mean is their A HUGE differences. The only differences I see in the specs, is 120 more mhz for the processor speed, and 120 mhz more for the ram speed. Will that make a big difference?

I'm not 100% sure but I think it might just be under clocked.

I dont think there's a big difference. The XT runs at 500/500 and the PE at 520/560. You should be able to OC at PE levels very easily.
Enjoy the sweet new card
