2x x1600 vs 850 xt pe

[ali123]

hello I was wondering what would be better 2 x1600 or 1 x850 xt pe
just for gaming and Iam talking about now not in the future because these will be my temporary cards

If you were going to comare 2 x1600 and 1 x850 xt pe the x850 would be better for gaming and also would be cheaper however the x1600 will have better resale value if your planning to get a dx10 card later on.

also you can use it for a physics acclerator right?

two X1600 PROs? the X850 XT would probably be much better, although you'd be better off with an X1800 GTO or 7600 GT if you're into playing newer titles because of the advanced visual features they'd offer.

Iam talkin about to x1600 xt's and I don't plan on really using it on newer games I wanna use it on games like wow and final fantasy XI

Two X1600XTs will cost about $300 ($150 each). The X850XT is faster than two X1600XTs, and it's half the price ($150). I know which one I'd get.

yeah but you can get the around 70-80 bucks on ebay
