Im planning to buy a video card to put it in my system and im waiting for the release of the latest video card like the up coming Nvidia (g80) or the ATi (R600). Will my hardware can manage this kind of video card? I really dont have enough budget to buy all new hardware rig..
im very sorry for putting my topic to the wrong place but thnx for your help. i cant give a price range bec. i just what to know if my money is worth saving buying the up coming video card than buy this present video card like 7600GT.
Its all cool. Just remember to look before you post. What games do you want to play? The 7600GT is pretty sufficient for most games.
Its a pretty good stop gap card till you buy a DX10 card up upgrade your entire system.
A dx10 card might look a bit out of proportion compared to the rest of your system, and i don't know but it could even be bottlenecked by it. A 7600gt or a step up to a x1900xt would be pretty sweet and would go well with what you got then save your penny's for a new box.
yeah i know it wierd but i just found some article about in game( http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/c [...] ames2.html ) i know this article is very out dated but the game and os still what we use now
and it said that most game today is base of the power of video card and i just thought if i buy now a video card which is sm 3.0 while a few week from now a new video card will support sm 4. then i thought maybe it worth to wait and i just wonder if it will really fitted to this kind of system which i have now
Personally I don't think you'll get all the performance out of the card that you would like. Rather save up and get a whole new system. That's what I would do.
Agree with Locky and DSN. Pick up a 7600GT and start saving up for a new system down the road. That 7600 should hold you over until mid next year until future software comes out.
I agree with the rest. An x850xtpe or 7600gt should suit you well. Your system should handle Dx10 cards without any fuss as well. If your planning to stick to 939 for a while longer, another gig of ram could also be beneficial. Just overclock that 3200+, get you a good DX9 Card, and be happy! (Save the DX10 jump for mid next year)
Or an X1650XT, we have them in the shops now, in the UK, for what would be $130 ish... I have seen some 3dmark scores of it being about 20% faster then the 7600GT...
thnx for the info guys actually i only use the integrated video in my mobo. hoping that if my rig can still keep up to this up coming video card then i rather save this money. and maybe a bigger chance that my rig will have a life span about 2 yrs.(Which can still play up coming games) enough time to buy a new rig. and maybe 2 yrs. is enough that all hardware and software is more mature and of course cheaper.
and guys 7600GT is the best budget video card in the market today right?? but i see sum product line Inno3D 7600GST which using DRR3 and it much cheaper. compare with 7600GT which is much more better in price/performance?
