Madman Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 (edited) get Nvidia Ge Force 7 series, its the best for gamers.you will be hapy with it.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Totally pointless if his CPU is too slow. Unless he can afford a 6800 GT, which i doubt a bit due to the 5200 he asked for, the 6600 GT is the best atm, even if he must save some more.the 7800 is out of question for anyone who is not rich or not a maniac.Besides that, for emulation, the CPU weighs more. Check my sig, i put it up with my specs now. Edited October 17, 2005 by Madman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Not to mention the 7800 is extremely expensive. However, the new ATIs do quite well compared to the 7800s. The latest is always expensive though. For best price/performance I'd go for a Radeon 9600/9700/9800 or GeForce 6600GT/6800. Those should all be under $200.

Weirdy Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 (edited) I like nvidia better Edited October 17, 2005 by Weirdy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Usually the way the Nvidia Vs ATi Race goes is ATi Will have some super card, Nvidia comes out with a better one for awhile, then ATi tops it for a super long time again. Waiting to see if that will happen with the X1000.... Does anyone remember how long the Radeon 9800 series lasted? Omg it was tops for like years. You can STILL get away with using the XT.

Jjangthekid Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2005/10/1..._x1800xl/1.html The ATI x1800xl is better in some fields and the 7800GT was better in other fields. Each has their pros and cons but being a fanboy that I am, I rather go with ATI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 yeah id have to say i like ATi better in alot of ways nVidia 6800GT is a sweet card tho for a good price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaotica Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I have an ATI Radeon 9800 and it runs everything I throw at it just fine - Doom 3, Far Cry, Fear. That's about all I can say, because I'm not very techno savvy nowadays. And I use the official drivers, and I've had no probs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agozer Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I have an ATI Radeon 9800 and it runs everything I throw at it just fine - Doom 3, Far Cry, Fear. That's about all I can say, because I'm not very techno savvy nowadays. And I use the official drivers, and I've had no probs.Normal, Pro or XT (or how was it)? I have Pro and it still holds its ground very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaotica Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I got the 9800 Pro. Are the Omega drivers better in some way? I have a P4 3 ghz, 1 gig ram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
