Best Deal?

What would you guys say is the best nvidia card deal on this list? Mostly after the ones below 1000,- NOK, but if there is a way better deal a little higher could be ok. Generally, the cheaper the better.

Could the 550 mhz be considered? What about fanless? And is it important with 256 mb? Does the 512 mb win, even if it have maybe lower latencies? Passive would be a plus, though not a necessity. The shop doesn't have like all the info about many of the cards, and it is really hard to make comparison at the manufacturers site, just so many models or they aint listed like for the Gainward models.

HELP!

It is for my 13 year old nephew, playing mostly civilization 4 and the like, no hardcore fps as of yet though there is a question. He wants to buy some games down the road, I told him he can buy like a 7600 a little later and sell this card if he gets hampered, and probably end up at about the same spendage given those probably will fall in price after launch (?). The good deal to me seems to be those at like 1800,- or the 6600s at half or below, though I find this all a little bit complicated. Are a 6600 below half the performer of a 7600?

Welcome to the HardForums!

I would say the cards that give you the best value for your current needs are a used 7800gt or x1800xl (for around $200 USD). However, a used 6800GT or x850xt are what I would suggest if you're on a tight budget.

On cards like these, having lots of vram isn't the most important thing. 512mb is absolutely useless on a slow card. 128mb will do fine with cards of this level. The speed of the memory is also very important. I would take 128mb DDR3 over 512mb DDR1 any day.
