I'm sorry if this question repeats other threads; I've looked around and couldn't see a definitive answer.
My choices:
Connect3D Radeon X1950XT (£147)
BFG 8600GTS OC 256MB (£141)
The X1950XT apparently runs better on DX9 games, but then the 8600 runs DX10 for the future.
I'm leaning towards the BFG card (Link) as it's overclocked already and looks like good value.
I have seen disapointing reviews of the 8600, so am not 100% convinced.
I'm looking at this for a gaming upgrade for Oblivion, NWN2, BF2142, etc (My Hardware Thread)
Any thoughts / advice?
