6550D (A8-3850) vs Discrete Card

[checkitman22]

Hello, what is the equivalent of a 6550D in discrete cards? I honestly couldn't find any benchmarks of the 6550D vs a list of discrete cards, I saw it vs some EXTREMELY low end cards that it blew out of the water so it wasn't really fair. What would you say its equivalent too? I'm building a machine for myself with either a 945 + 5670, or a 6550D alone. It will be used for light gaming nothing fancy... would like to Rome: Total War at decent settings with what ever I build. It should be noted that both builds on NewEgg are like the exact same price. So its just about which is better.

It about the equivalent to the nVidia GeForce GT 220 and generally faster than the Radeon HD 6450. Definitely slower than the HD 5670.

See following benchmarks:
