Also who knows what ATI cards come with Half Life 2?
the 9800xt, the 9600xt, and the all in wonder 9600 pro
9800xt retail: 499
9600xt retail: 200
aiw 9600 pro retail: 250
note: the all in wonder 9600 pro is slightly slower than the 9600 xt, but it comes with a tv tuner, tv in, tv out, FM radio, etc. but it LACKS DVI (for flatscreen biggiez, greater than 21")
That's good enough, abu. We are in no competition. I hope your new card plays your games and keeps you happy. Does the 9600 overclock to the speed of the 9600 pro? What kind of memory chips are on it and what does the small writing say. If you enter it I can tell you what cas latency you have.Originally posted by abu_has_the_power@2 December 2003 - 00:07
hey adamp2p, wat's ur aquamark score again? i just got a radeon 9600. my score is 20808. is that good or bad?
It even says in the aquamark3 end screen that 20,000 and above will play the next generation games well. I would think you could score 30,000 with that card overclocked.
9600xt: 200 averageOriginally posted by HardcoreGamer@1 December 2003 - 23:41

@atividia--you are new around here, but let me tell you something.
Those benchmarks, I should have stated, came from xbitlabs.com, one of the most respected hardware review sites.
It has been proven in several benchmarks what that one concluded. It is not new news that Nvidia's entire product line struggles with high AA and AF.
I love AA and AF and high detail settings. The entire reason why I play games in the first place is to enter an alternate reality, and ATI's card offer a spectacular view of every game I play. That's why I love ATI. That's why Valve chooses ATI as a parner for the release of Half Life 2. The rest of us gamers who know that will chill with ATI while you get laggy frames...okay, dude
See ya!

now be nice, and prevent this from turning into a flame war.
whoever benchmarked those for xbit labs was biased towards ati, as i can see you are as well.
and lastly, if you wanted to truly be helpful to our dear friend here, you would be nicer than to recommend an OEM card and promote it. you me both understand that OEMs from anyone spell disaster because of their lack of warranty.
