Video cards... which one sucks less?

Post by Giraffe }{unter »

I currently have an Chaintech GeForce 4 Ti4200 128mb and was wondering if my ATI 9600 would be better?

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

Grab a 6600gt then.. about 200 and less depending on site, and its prolly good enough for what you need + some.. :)

Do you really need such a good card in a media pc?


Oh, and I recommend an ATI x800 GTO, either Connect3D or Sapphire cards are overclockable. You can unlock an extra 4 pipes and overclock them by at least 100mhz on the memory and processor, making it into near x850 PE speeds for much less money :).

Their around $150, btw.
