    "Module,Card,Graphic,256MB, NV42,XPS" is what's printed on the invoice for a refurbished Dell XPS M170 that I ordered. Is it a 6800 GO or an Ultra???

    I've searched extensively and I haven't found a clear answer.

    It's an Ultra. Don't worry, you won't get scammed by Dell. NV42 if I'm correct is both actually. The Ultra is a higher clocked 6800, just that.
