    6600 is mainstream, x800 was the flagship, before the X850 came out. if u can affordit, a x800 will be faster.

    X800 is better, but if you can, try to get X800XL. its much better and only around $250

    if its a choice between a X800 and 6600GT then get the X800.

    you would be better comparing 6800GT to the X800 as they are the same quality of cards.
