a super newb question

[yamahammer342]

i might get dogged for this question but ol well..
a geforce 8600gt would be a significant upgrade to a geforce 6800gt right?

 

[TonCrafter]

In short........absolutely.

Nice forum name btw. I own a 2002 Yamaha 650 Custom.

yes... but an x1950pro performs better and its around the same price on an 8600gt

Absolutely. Well said.

 

[Teachme]

8600gt is surely worth the upgrade. You should go in for it. 8800 is the best but nevermind.

 

[Vaanish]

I would definately go with the X1950PRO.

 

[Merkwürdigeliebe]

X1950PRO is the way to go bro.

Or consider the HD3850 if you want something a little better for cheap.

 

[veg1992]

^ thats a good consideration as well... but the problem is... even tho its MSRP is $160.00 ish... but its gonna be a bit more than that... and i don't think his budget is taht high..

 

[yamahammer342]

Yeah, newegg has a few 8600gt's right around $100 thats why i was so interested in it.

 

[veg1992]

x1900gt is also better and is around $100
