what is the best video card for my pc.
amd 64 3700+
2gb Ram
6600gt
i want to give me old pc another life line, to play some games from 2006-2007. i am think of getting the 3850HD (512mb) , 8800gt (512mb) or the new 4850 HD (512mb) . i know it would be a bottleneck, but would i see a big improve from my current card (6600GT)
Current benchmarks
bf2: all High with 4AA and 16AA @ 1280*1024 = 5-12 frames
bf2142: all High no aa/af a @ 1280*1024 = 18-25 frames
call of duty 4: 640*480 highest possible setting (no aa/af) 15-25 frames
GRID: 800*600 med setting (no aa/af) 20-30 frames
UT3 : 640*480 high-med setting (no aa/af) 30-40 frames
4850HD = £120,
8800gt = £90,
3850 HD = £65
would a new card like the ones above increase my performance say playing these game at 1280*1024 med-high setting 25-30 frames.
thanks for your help
