Im thinking of buying a new gfx card sometime and im wondering should I go for a 8500GT 512mb or a radeon 2600 series card. I have around $200 from chinese new years lol and wanna upgrade to something current. My 6600GT is getting old for the new stuff today, its overclocked and still kinda lags...
I just recently upgraded to a X2 4200+ running at stock speeds and im wondering if it runs hot normally, right now my cpu temp is 41c idle compared to my old 3200+ at 32c idle. I have a XP-90C with 92mm silverstone fan to keep it cool but still im just wondering.
Thanks
