Well, I have received Radeon 9550 card last week for my new Dell 2007WFP. While I'm happy with it, it has somehow boosted my thirst for games! :roll:

9550 is good enough but from what I have found out, it isn't great with my chipset SIS 648 board, I had to use AGP 4X mode via CAT control panel for stable so it will have to be Nvidia card which I had no problem using 8X.

I'm looking at Geforce 6600 GT which would suit my system well but I'm having doubts about 7600 GT.

My system:
Pentium 4 2.53Ghz Northwood FSB533mhz
1GB 333mhz Ram
MSI 648 Max-L
TrueBlue 480W PSU

What do you think?

The 7600GT would not be overkill, it would go very nice with your system and give you a HUGE boost in game performance.

The 6600GT is good but it pales in comparison to the 7600GT.

well i will tell you this the Geforce 6600gt is a great card. but its getting old. you would be better off with getting a x800 or x850 i have seen then at newegg at a really really cheap price! as for the gf7600gt i think your pc is good enough and you do have 1gb ram. so you should be ok :)
