My friend is going to upgrade his video card, he has the nvidia 9400 GT these are his specs:
Processor: Regor 240 2.8 ghz dual core
MoBo: GIGABYTE GA-MA785GM
Ram: 2GB DDR2 800 mhz
PowerSupply: Antec BP-550 550W continous 3 rails (22A, 22A, 25A)
VideoCard: Sparkle 9400 GT 512MB DDR2
He plays games at a low resolution 1280 by 1024 for the most part. These are the cards I've been looking at.
$100 HD 4850 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102824
$130 HD 4860 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102866
$170 HD 5770 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150447
I heard the 4860 is a crippled 4890, if he gets it he will probably want to overclock it.
Didn't really think the 4870 was all that great of a price, and the 4860 just looks really nice. What do you guys suggest?
