Anyone got a link to benchmark for 8500GT? I've been trying to look around, found a bunch of 8600GT benchmarks, but can't find much of 8500GT.
I'm trying to compare that of 8500GT vs 7600GT/X1650XT since they're all priced equally.
All I know at the moment from reading various websites, which I don't know if they're reliable, is that 7600GT/X1650XT are slightly faster than 8500GT, but 8500GT is faster than 7600GS. And 8500GT is using DDR2 instead, with lower Core Clock and Memory Frequency speed, but has DirectX 10 support. I need more details from benchmarks to see if 8500GT would be a great choice, as 8500GT uses way less power than the other cards mentioned, and even come with passive cooling, which would be great for quiet systems.
I'm building a new system, since E4300's priced drop to $117 on MWave, and the huge drop in DDR2's price.
This is gonna be the 8th C2D system I'm building, and I'm strict on budget, building it, gonna mess with it for a couple weeks, sell it for a profit. xP
