[jsteeno]

Hi All

I want to buy one of these 2 graphic cards. But I can't deside wich one. I use my pc only for gaming
My specs:

Intel Pentium IV 3.2 ghz HT
1024 gb ddr
powersupply 480 watt
Asus motherboard P4C800 deluxe

Hier a link with both cards compared: http://www.xfxforce.com/web/product...rationId=578281&productConfigurationId=550286

Or is there a better card in the same price range??

Thx

Around that price range you can get the 7600GT, which is better then the two you're looking at:

Thx, but isn't it an PCI express card? My motherboard is AGP

Oh I didn't see that....the 6800XT would be a better choice out of those two then.

no the 7600GS is better, 7600GS is better than 6800xt. It has more pipes and higher clock speed, and it uses newer technology

 

[b1gapl]

True...I guess I was thinking about the memory interface. But yes 7600GS does use newer technology, more pipes, and faster clock speeds.

ok thx for your help

the 6800 XT's have 8 pipelines, and the 7600 GS's have 12

however, some people have been able to unlock the 6800 XT's to have 16 pipelines. that's not guaranteed though.
