Solution 4745454b May 12, 2013 It should be faster, but nothing amazing. GTS250, GTS450, GTS550 (oops, I mean GTX550), 5750, 7750, etc would have all been better choices.

MajinCry Distinguished Dec 8, 2011 958 0 19,010 May 12, 2013 #2 The 640 is comparable to the AMD 6670. I upgraded from an 8600GT 512MB DDR2 to a 6670 1GB DDR3, and my framerate more than doubled. Dunno 'bout the 9600GT, but its safe to say that it will be a nice upgrade. Upvote 0 Downvote
