[elperra]

Hi is this card good for light gaming? Canada Computers - Video Cards > PCI-Express Cards > Powered By ATI : Sapphire ATI RADEON HD 3650 512MB DDR3 Dual DVI PCI-Express 2.0 Graphics Card.
I would like to play Crisis and Call of Duty 4, can I run these game ok with this vc ?
Thanks.

i've maxed out cod4 on the 256mb version of that card on a 19" widescreen. and it ran perfectly with no noticable frame lag.

crysis, not so sure for max res and dx10, but it should run nicely.

 

[Snake91839]

sorry. I meant crysis mainly. I've never played COD4 though.

 

[Peter.Cort]

gotcha, you should. cod4 is a dirty game. and yeh seeing as how not many cards can max it out, the 3850 is no exception.

The link you posted is for a 3650 not 3850.

oh lol then that changes everything. THe 3650 is pretty much a worthless card for gaming....

Try to stretch the budget and grab this:

NCIX.com - Buy Palit GeForce 9600GT 650MHZ 512MB 1.8GHZ DDR3 PCI-E DVI-I HDMI HDCP HDTV Out Video Card - XNE/9600T+0152 In Canada..

well with a 3650 then what snake says applies, and what i said doesn't.
