Graphic Cards

[BGS]

Hey I'm getting a new computer and my current card is a 9800 256mb...

I want to know what cards compare to that with the ones im being offered with my computer:

Geforce 6600GT 128MB/128-bit GDDR3 PCI-E(EVGA)
Geforce 6800GS 256MB/256-BIT GDDR3 PCI-E(EVGA)
Geforce 6800GT 256MB/256-BIT GDDR3 PCI-E(EVGA)
Geforce 6800GT 256MB/256-bit GDDR3 PCI-E(XFX)
Geforce 7800GT 256MB/256-bit GDDR3 PCI-E(EVGA)
Geforce 7800GTX 256MB/256-bit GDDR3 PCI-E(EVGA)
RADEON X850 XT 256MB/256-BIT GDDR3 PCI-E

none...

the 9800 series compares with geforce fx series
the x800 series compares with geforce 6 series
the x1k series compares with 7800 series

No.


The 6600GT would give you the closest performance to the 9800, assuming its a 9800XT or Pro.

 

[mike4realz]

of course...that's because the 6600gt is a newer card and they don't compare wid the 9800's. they compare wid the x800's like i posted

eVGA 7800GT is hands down the best bang for the buck videocard available today. $300 and it will rip through games like a hot knife threw butter.

Forget the GTX. Just overclock the GT.

 

[JoshSB]

get the 7800GT hehe =) dont overclock it, alrdy blazing fast and will get rid of your warranty

 

[Brtnboarder495]

Right ... so your saying the X1300 compares to the 7800GTX? Mmm No.

There really are no direct parallels between Nvidia's and ATi's GPU's.

7800GTX > 7800GT > (X850XT) > 6800GS OC"ed > 6800GT > 6800GS > 6600GT > 9800XT > 9800pro > 5***series

X1800XT performs against 7800GTX lol

X1600 performs around the 6600GT

X1300 is just a rip of because it has 4 pipelines and has 512MB of ram lol

The whole X8** series from ATI suck. and yes the 7800GT is the best card to buy right now
eVGA > Leadtek > XFX

i really dont know where the X850XT goes so i just put it somewhere

If you have a 9800SE, it would be around the 5700. If you have a 9800Pro, it would be around the 6600, and if you have a 9800XT, it would be almost like a 6600GT.

6 series cards have shader model 3.0 though, that makes them better in a lot of games then their equivelent ATI cards.
