So I thought I was happy with my 8600GT OC, and I am, but... I was messing with Gmod and had too much going on at one and eventually noticed terrible lag, so I thought well, how far can I push this thing and tried an all out war with roughly 100 NPC's on screen at once with weapons in hand, and just as I expected, my screen went blank and the game crashed.
Now I have been looking at the 8800GT and the 9600GT considering their price ranges, and upon further searching I have seen conflicting reviews, basically what it comes down to is this, I want to spend 170 max including shipping, but does the 8800GT > 9600GT or is it vice versa?
And I can only assume that my current processor may be a bottleneck for this card, E2140, right?
