Video Graphic Card

well i bought a PC high-end gamer so they call in the shop with Nvidia 9600 GT i want to upgrade it to GeForce 9800 GX2 or GeForce GTX 280

so i wanted to know which one is better? for future games and all

both of them are amazing cards it's just a mater of taste both will have almost identical performance.

btw which resolution are you playing and what is your pc's specs ?

Get 4870X2.domke13

Seconded.

i wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the 9800gx2! If it was still at it's original price, i would agree, but after price drops:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130338

It is now $284.99!

Cheapest 4870x2 is $559 at newegg

this review is a good comparison between the two:

Thanks for help and my resolution is 1280x1024darkigw

The HD4850 is more than enough for that res.

Edit: Is this what you play at or is it the highest res your monitor can go?

thats the highest my monitor can go lol i wonder how i make it higher o.O

edit: maybe i should wait antil Nvidia sets out a new card?you know that one that will over power new ATIs card

you talking about the shrink die of GTX280? (New nvidia)

^^can't see that happen for awhile.

Ant yes, your monitor is very old i guess, there is no reason to get a great GPU when you play at very low resolution.

HD4850 will take you very far on 1280*1024. (even HD3850 will do.)
