the 8600 is a flop.....take the 8800 imo

8600 is a crippled piece of crap tbh, not worth even the low price

If it's half the price of the expensive card, it'll only perform 50% as good.

Expensive = Better when it comes to graphics cards.

It's shame to buy something just for 1 game. Realy waste of money.

The 8800GTS 640mb is the best performance for the money i think.

The 8600 series are cheap pieces of crap that perform horribly and are a way of promoting of DX10 graphics to people who have no clue what they are buying.

Basically, don't buy an 8600 card, save up more money and go for an 8800GTS 640mb.

Can you explain why 8600 is crap? I have 200 fps with my GF 5300, I obviously will have double the fps, and it will be way more powerfull for other games. Isnt it? or It's just simpley sucks?

200fps in what game? Please don't say ET :P
Parent

pala 14 Oct 2007, 18:01
Et =) But at other games like GW I get like 10 fps. :P

the 8800 gts 320 meg version is the cheaper / better option imo, theres suprisingly not a great deal of difference in peformance between the 640 meg and the 320 meg versions. if you can afford it, go for the 8800 gtx though, the performance on even the non-big named cards (bfg,asus etc)is far better.

the 2900xt hd card has had a lot of good reports and is a lot cheaper than the 8800 series, might be worth a look yer, but go for the 1 gig version, youll notice a huge difference from the 512 one. and remember you might need a few motherboard tweaks to use the ati correctly

dEzIrE 14 Oct 2007, 17:14
ill ask for the tweaks then xP

Tell us which games should be played with this card and how much money you'd pay for it.
▼
ScarZy 14 Oct 2007, 17:26
Depends what you are using it for?

Tell me what you playing at, and that might help

But ofc, Nvidia are better than ATI.

8800 gts runs etqw at max settings @ 1680*1050 with more than 20 fps for me

For others games only look images (no need to understand french)
