I currently have a AMD a8-3850 processor which has an additional 6550 Radeon HD card crossfired with the integrated 6550.
It preforms nicely for the games I play. ( I think these crossfired 6550's equal a 6750 in power? )
My Tax return will have me looking for a second computer, to play MMO's on I play several but my main game is Lord of the Rings Online.
I am looking at a AMD FX-6100 machine.
This AMD machine comes with a NVIDIA Geforce GT 610 1GB video card.
Performance wise, how will this hold out. Will it be comparible, or better than, or worse than, my current crossfired 6550's?
If it will be lacking I am considering paying up to 100 dollars US for a new video card.
I had looked at a Nvidia GT 640 with 4gb ram on it which fell within those price ranges... however I am looking to go cheap here in cost for best performance.
100 dollars is my "top" list on cost of a new card, but only if the current 610 is really lacking ( in comparison to what I am used to with my 2 6550's crossfired )
Also if there is another Radeon equivelent that benches good for less than 100 dollars I am up for those suggestions too.
If the Nvidia GT 610 is going to handle well in comparison to my current system or better then I won't plan on an immediate card upgrade, which means at a later date I could afford possibly a much nicer card.
My preferences are not to have to buy a replacement card, but I realize the 610 is low end, I am just not sure how low end.
Please let me know your thoughts!
