So which is the better card, 6800 gs/gt or a 7600 gt. The 7800/7900 is way out of my budget. BTW The games I play are AOE 3, NFSMW, NFSU2, C&C Generals ect. I don't play Stuff like HL2, Call of Duty, Doom3. Will the 6800 series still be good enough.
One more question. I have a vga monitor, and alot of the video cards have dvi ports only. I found some adapters dvi to vga on ebay, Does that affect the picture or any thing? I would rather not buy a new monitor.
I have had a 6800GS PCI-E and a 6800GT AGP and I have to say the 6800GS PCI-E is absolutely amazing and what im using now, it overclocks like crazy but you might not even need to it is pretty good straight out of the box.
If you've got the money I'd say go for the 7600GT but the 6800GS is definately a good choice if not.
Like other people have said if you buy retail and not OEM you should get an adapter with the card.
Depends on where you got it from.
I'd say the 7600GT is a good choice, but THE 6800GS would have also been a good choice.
Either way I don't think you'll be disappointed.
