Hi folks,
I'm planning to upgrade my video card from a Radeon 9700TX (A Dell PC...This is Dell's emaciated 9700). My concern is whether my current system will bottleneck any of the newer cards.
I current have a P4 2.4Ghz (Northwood) with 512 MB of PC1066 RDRAM.
I figure that it makes no sense to go for one of the x1950 pro cards since I don't think my system will fully utilise it. Or will it?
Right now I'm leaning towards a 7600gt. Would this be a good upgrade?
Or should I aim lower and go for something like a 6800gt or a X800Pro instead?
