Thread: Which Card Should I Buy?

  1. #11
    after much deliberation i have now got it narrowed down to 3 cards!!

    1) msi geforcefx5600 vtdr 128mb

    2) tyan tachyon g9600 pro

    3) sparkle geforce 4 titanium 4200 platinum

    all are about the same price (the sparkle being the most expensive of the three) so cost doesnt really come into it which means i dont know what to do im edging toward the 9600 on the grounds that they seem to be a better choice for gaming, however the 5600 has shit loads of extra stuff that comes with it and i like freebies especially the remote control thingy it has, and finally the sparkle because it just looks so damn good with that big old heatsink and fans...plus its also got a fair bundled software package!

    any help as to which of these to go for would be appreciated, looking to have a card that will play games and not be too old hat come next year
    thanks.

    1) Slowest, old hat, good value though

    2) DX9 card, nice features, good value

    3) Fastest, not DX9

    yea, good idea, although a radeon 9500 might also be nice, cuz it's got 8 pipeline rendering, and 9600 has 4. but 9500 is more expensive
