Which Video Card is better - 6800 GS or 8400 GS

Hey quick question, which Video Card is better? NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS 256MB or my current one 6800 GS 256mb for medium to high gaming.

Thanks.

6800GS definitely,its better than 8400GS could ever be in gaming.

You are joking right ?? the 8400 is better for sure but if you want to save money or to get even better card then just take yoy's advise and wait till 9 series is out at leastSearchMaster

I suggest getting the 8600GT if you are looking for a budget gaming card. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130085 After mail-in rebate, comes to about 75 bucks.... not a bad deal.

This is the same card at a slight increased price, but overclocked from the factory.... you can achieve the same numbers from the cheaper card, though.... But the in-store warranty is better on the more expensive card.... go figure.... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130311 Being that it's only 10 bucks more, and has the better in-store warranty.... probably better just to get this one, I guess.

your a mod, you should know better:cry:

6800 GS. The 8400 isn't even a gaming card. What are some of you guys saying? Can the 8400 run Half Life 2, Far Cry, or Doom 3 maxed out like the 6800 can? I don't think so.karasill

At the moment i'm kind of stuck with 8400GS, will 2-3 gigs of Ram help out a bit for games until I get a new card?

I appreciate the replys guys.

well it mite run them maex out but a 6800 runs them with close to 3x the frame rate. the 8400gs can't even run oblivion in double digit frame rates

how much ram you got now? don't buy that 8400gs if you have the 6800gs. 2gb over 1gb makes quite a difference but 3gb is a waste even on most highend system with xp

the 8400GS has better performance but really you should wait and save your money because theres no point in buying it for gaming as it isn't intended for it.yoyo462001

Wrong.

Wrong.

6800GS is better, but they are both bad for today's games.

6800GS........but like a few others have said.....there's no point in upgrading until nVidia's 9000 series comes out.
