Default Woes of RMAs

Well, after along time since my PSU blew. Thread is here: LINKY
I finally had time to get my PSU RMA'd. But over the course, i found that my video card was also taken out by the blown PSU. It had worked, but every so often would give me problem. And of course, i did all the normal troubleshooting on it..... But alas, it had died.
So i sent it back to NewEgg to get replced. However they now tell me that my card or any similiar card is no longer carried by them. Meaning they dont have any Dual DVI, AGP 6800GTs.

So here is my dilema. I need a card that is Dual DVI, and AGP. The only cards i see are the 6600GTs or Ultras or the Radeon850XTs. Now i dont really like ATi since the move to my 6800GT. But im going for speed and performance here. Framerate is key, i have become so accustomed to my 6800 that anything less that 60fps constant, is horrible. And right now, im running on a nVidia MX4000, sad, so very sad.

So what do you pimps think.....

EDIT: It seems that it did not attach the Poll. So if you can just reply back with what you think.

6600GT
6600U
ATi 850XT

*remember, AGP and Dual DVI

I'd go x850XT if you can't wait for the 6800GS which may take weeks to a few months to arrive in AGP.. Contrary to NewEgg, I'd say the 6800 Ultra (AGP) is as similar to the 6800GT as a 6800GS (yet unavailable except on PCI-E) is.

i would stick with the x850 even if you dont like it, its worth more money, so if you dont use it u can turn around and sell it off and buy the card you want
