    almost because 6800le cards only have 128mb mem and slower clocks. So it would be 6800gt preformance

    Most 6800LE's CANNOT be unlocked to 16 pipelines as the are almost always damaged. However in most cases it can be unlocked to 12.

    you can overclock your card. You just can't unlock any pipes

    If you want to know if your card is good, try using 3d Mark or Auqamark
