So, I have a secondary gaming rig which currently has a 6600GT in it. It is an older card, but seems to serve it's purpose well. On this system, all I play is WoW and Counterstrike: Source.
The spec's of this system is 2x Xeon 3.2GHz, 4GB ram (ya, only sees 3 in XP), 2x 15k SCSI cheetahs in raid0, 2007fp (1600x1200).

I recently got an el cheapo 2400XT, but was wondering if anyone knew if it would be better than the existing 6600GT I have for the games I play at the resolution I play.
I know the 2400XT has received some pretty bad reviews, but in my mind, the 6600GT is a few generations old and you would think todays low end stuff would still be better? Even if it were the same performance, I would be happy since it is lower power consumption and less heat.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
 
its a close race but i think the 2400xt should be better. but performance wise u wont feel a difference prob.
 
Wow, thanks for that link on Tom's. Never knew one existed, but definitely good to know now.

So it looks like I should just stay w/ the old 6600GT. I just figured current gen low end would have slightly better performance than something like 3 or so yrs old. At least it runs cooler :p

Thanks again!
