HD4670? wha...

[ahem]

If i am replacing a 9500 gt for an equal priced 4670 ati radeon, is that a good trade. also is the overall perfromance of
the ati any good?

The 4670 is quite a bit better than the 9500.

 

[ahem]

what about the actula perfromance of the 4670? does it stack up?

Sack up to what? It is a relatively low end card and will provide relatively low end performance.

Upgrading from a 9500GT to 4670 is simply waste of money cuz the performance increase is not that big to celebrate(my own opinion).

Just save money for now and get something better.

But the 4670 is definitely better than 9500GT.

The 4670 is roughly twice as fast as a 9500GT.

I would upgrade to the HD 4830, HD 4850, or HD 4770 to make the money you spend count.

The HD 4770 cost the most, but also consumes the least amount of power of the three, thus you may save money on a new PSU if the current one is weak.

The HD 4850 is the most powerful GPU of the three, while the HD 4830 is the weakest.

Power consumption:

HD 4770 => 50w - 55w
HD 4830 => 85w
HD 4850 => 110w
