Graphics card help ^^ 2 Years, 6 Months ago  
its come to that time where I've compared the future to my lessened older technology and that can only mean one thing, upgrade time ^^.

I’ve been looking at both the 8800gt (around £130) and the newer 9600gt (around £120)

On paper the 8800gt is a lil better in the benchmarks, but still stuck in the middle.

Any suggestions on which one and any idea were I can get it cheaper? Many thanks, Web

Given the choice I'd go for the 9600 after looking at recent reviews, I just couldn't justify the extra ££ for so little extra (unless your tft does some insane resolutions? That's only where the difference shows between the 2 cards)

9600gt does look gurd but looking at this:
http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/1293/1/page_1_introduction/index.html

im still not sure. if i can find the 8800gt cheaper it seems a lil better
also 8800gt used g96 whiel 9600gt only uses the g94.

toss a coin time?

what card have you got?
