9800GT or HD 5670?

Which card is better suited for some gaming? I'm planning to upgrade my 9500GT.

Can the 9800gt or HD5670 play modern games well? I have a 500W PSU.

id check out the 560Ti or the 5770

you'd want to get more of an upgrade than that. the 5770 is fairly cheap and gives alot of bang for the buck. and your psu will be good enough for it.

Those are out of my budget. My only option is the 9800GT or the HD 5670.

HD 5670 or HD 5750 or HD 4830.

well then just get the 5670, especially if it's cheaper. they're both pretty much the same power wise, but hte 5670 uses less power and less heat.

I saw some benchmarks showing the 9800GT having more fps in some games. But some also show the 5670 having more fps.

I also learned the 9800GT only has dx10 while the 5670 DX 11.

dx11 on the 5670 is gonna suck really bad.

My advice is save a bit longer and get the 460 768mb it can be had for less than 150.

I found some good deals for a video card.

an Inno3D GTS250 512ddr3for only₱4,200.00 thats like $80.

and aPalit 9800GT 512ddr3 256bitfor only₱3,300.00 ($65)

any of those cards will be good for what you want. If you don't care about dx11 then get the 9800gt. If you do then get the 5670. They are both similar power wise, with the 9800gt being slightly stronger BUT the 5670 uses less power, has better features.

Do get the GTS250. I have one and I upgraded from a 8500GT. So worth it at this price. The GTS250 is a refresh of the 9800GTX+ as far as I remember. I play on 1920x1080 and its doing a great job, but I use DX9.GazaAli

The GTS 450 in my country cost $104 USD.

I made a mistake earlier, the GTS 250 and GTS 450 are comparable. I'd go for the 450 if you decide to go that route...

And yeah, if they basically cost the same then that's even better.

Okay. So its the GTS 450 then. Thanks guys. (:

5670 is considerably slower than 9800GT which in turn is considerably slower than GTS 250 which again is slower than GTS 450.
