Neither. Pony up $30-40 more and get something decent.Â

I recommend going for a 9800 GT.
It's cheap for the power, can run a bunch of games on high or max, and can run crysis on medium at about 60 fps. (For 120-130 bucks that's a really good bargain.) |

[/quote] Well, NewEgg keeps sending me e-mails telling me how much they love me and giving me deals. They don't know I won a hueg computer though (which I've bee informed has FINALLY shipped btw). There's some same type ATI cards for cheaps right now. A 4830 with $5 off and free shipping using the codes EMCABBEAK and EMCABBDEC (this is comparable to a 8800/9800GT afaik) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as..._-14102803 And a 4850 with $20 off using the code EMCABBDEB (more comparable to like a 9800GTX or w/ever I think) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as..._-14102770 So that's like $85 or $135 not including rebates or any crap. I thought you had a decent video card tho? (09-11-2008, 05:11 PM)Dave link Wrote:i would totaly ride that gay ass dragon thing. |

Go with at least a 9800GT, a 4850 if you're willing to save up for it.
