[phatboy]

Hi all, cant afford to make the jump really so was looking at the possibility of this card.

is the jump going to be worth while from my 6800LE which is a 12/6 and 400/900mhz to....

No, wouldnt be worth it.
The 7600GS is approx same speed as a 6600GT.

I've just had notification that the 6800LE I RMA'd to OCUK has been replaced with the 7600GS shown in the first post here.

Should I be happy or annoyed?

Happy! What did your 6800LE score in 3dmark05?

Well they would replace the 6800LE based on stock specs, in which case the 7600GS is fine.

However if you had unlocked your 6800LE as has the OP then you may find the 7600GS is slower. But then again that would void your warranty & getting any replacement is good.
