All i can say is that I love my new card 100 times more than my geforce fx5200.

im bout to buy a new mobo, but with my current shitty ms 6367, 4 x agp. it still runs pretty good. I think my mobo, memory and CPU are all holding down the cards full potential. oh well


my benchmarks were:

FX5200 score in blue
R9600XT scores in red

3dmark 01
4352 8035

3dmark 03
905 3026

Aquamark
Gfx 777 1149
CPU 4392 2284

Total
7149 9178

So now your probably wondering whats up with my new Aquamark score... yer im thinking the same as well. im confused. why has my CPU score gone down by sooo much? weird.

feel free to discuss any thoughts.

also whats the best drivers out there for this card. i havent OC anything yet, and i have the standard drivers installed

holy shit dude, i just upgraded from my FX5200 to an 9600 XT too. and it does indeed kick ass.

That is, of course, New Zealand dollars.

LOL hehehe

hey pitbul, what are your specs? and i totally agree with you... this card kicks ass.
maybe i love it so much because i hated my fx5200

adam, NZ$339 is equal to $200 US. lol, is it me or is that just a 'lil' to expensive for this card??? i think so


the rest of the gang, will a 8 x agp mobo increase my scores???

im getting a GA-7N400 PRO2 and its cheap

considering that i have the shittyest mobo on the planet at the moment can some1 give me a good estimate with the benchmarks.

oh yer i almost forgot,

no1s suggested the best drivers for this card

[gungrave]

i got the 9200
is the 9600 any good?

[Dray_04]

considering the 9200 and the fx5200 are somewhat identical,

id have to say HELL YER

Use Cat 3.10

I find these the most stable
4.1 crash call of Duty on my 9700 and also
but i might add very rarely on 9600XP on another machine.

Just my view

[adamp2p]

Just use the newest ones 4.1. Ignore the post earlier.

But use the tweak guides I showed you
