1 Last Time

**opivykid** · 12-19-2003, 03:01 AM

Ok, this will be my last damn post about video cards, and then I shall leave you alone. I need a good card that'll last me a good amount of time, yet I dont have $300 to get the 9800Pro.....................

I've heard good things about the 9500Pro, and the 9600xt, yet I don't know how the compare, so I shall ask the people on this site, who know their shit, to give me some info on what would fit the description above. (as you can see, I did not post any Nvidia's, because 1) I'm not really familiar with them, and 2), I've heard shit reviews about them, but it's all good)

Thanks!

depending on how much you got, get a 9600 series card, as its a direct 9 card, there are 4 the 9600se, 9600, 9600 pro, 9600xt

From a review site I got.

Because the 9700 and 9500 cards are essentially the cards with very slight differences, the two share the very same features, including full support for DirectX9.0.

The 9500 DOES support dx 9.0

im pretty sure the 9600 is a new version of the 9500, same kinda range.

same with 9700 and 9800.
