And you think the 8600gt sucks?

And you think the 8600gt sucks?

I saw some articles which say buy a X1950 rather than 8600GT and 8600GT cant even run DX10 games on max over 10FPS

Yea I tried the Call of Juarez demo on my laptop and it cant cross 9 fps

8800 gts 320 mb (Great value for price...)usule

but the memory is too small...

if u compared 8800gts-320mb and 8800gts-640mb,u would find out that 88gts-640 is much better than 88gts-320 cuz the memory...

i wonder why DX10 games need at least 512mb if u run them on MAX......

6600GT lol!kruesader

I win, mine is a 6200 TC LOL, :P

6600 GT woootshanelevy

its a great little card, just too old these days though :(

r u ready for the suckiest one :P its ... its

the RADEON 1300pro roflmao it sux that much. thinkin of upgrading to nivida 8800GTX. okay forget that i AM gna upgrade to it very soon :)

but the memory is too small...

More reading, less posting. The 320MB of VRAM has zero effect at resolutions below 16x12, especially without high levels of AA and AF.

In regards to your other posts, what do you mean that you can't get any DirectX 10 games to run over 10FPS? At what resolution? You show me a serious gamer playing at 19x12 (24" monitor) with an 8600GT that's not a temporary card, and I'll show you a guy who really don't know how to spend his money. I'll also mention that most of the "DirectX 10" games on the market right now are a very poor example of what DirectX 10 has to offer - the games weren't designed for them, they just had some effects thrown in as more of an afterthought than anything. With a card like the 8600GT, you should be able to get most upcoming DirectX 10 games playable at 12x10, or 10x7 if it's a really heavy game, which is probalby the resolution most 8600GT users will be playing at anyway.

As for DirectX 10 games requiring 512MB of Video RAM, I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion - but I'll bet that next gen we'll see a 256MB card that will outperform some of the 512MB+ cards on the market today. I'd also love for you to find me where in the papers on DirectX 10 that it "requires" 512MB of RAM to run games on Max.

Edit: Oh, and I've got a 256MB X1900XT.

It's not that DX10 games require 512 MB vram videocards, it's the fact that newer games will use larger textures and hence more room to allocate them while gpu is processing the other tasks. Also keep in mind that 512 MB+ videocards are mostly for gamers who plays at 1600 x 1200 resolution and above ( add some AA and AF), now that relies heavly on vram ( video ram). One last point for the readers, do not buy a videocard only for vram size, the most important thing is the gpu and his processing capabilities/ technologies/speed, etc.

Finally i dont care how much vram, gpu power, shader processors future videocards will have, i only care for 3 things: Power consumption ( we need less power consumption), less heat and size( technologies are supposed to make things smaller, faster and convenient, not make things bigger, hotter and power hungry). Let´s hope in the near future, compañies take that into account..:)

i have an 8800 GTS 320 MB :D

that is not completely true, directx 10 GPUs uses a different kind of achitecture. Bioshock required 520mb of video memory to play full settings, i have the 8800gts 320mb and played the game with everything on hight and enabled, no frame drops below 50fps

Desktop - 7950GT

Laptop - Go 6100

which graphics card you are using nowtjdeep_2007

Primary System - PNY nVidia 8800GTS 320MB (PCIEx16 )

Backup System - BFG nVidia 6600GT 128MB (AGPx8 )

Mobile System - Intel Extreme Graphics 2 64MB (Integrated )

Old Backup System - Gigabyte Radeon 9200SE 128MB (AGPx8 )

Primary System - x2 512MB ATI Radeon HD2900XT in crossfire

Second System - nVidia GeForce 7600GT 256MB

Third System - ATI Radeon 8500LE 128MB

first ever was a 9200 SE

then a geforce 5500

now a 2900XT.

Radeon X1600 series, to be exact, I think it was: Radeon X1650LE.
It sucks so much I feel like crying.
If I known a little more about graphic cards when I bought the computer there's no way I would have bought it!

I saw some articles which say buy a X1950 rather than 8600GT and 8600GT cant even run DX10 games on max over 10FPS
