Hey

I need some help for ATI vid cards. Like One is sapphire and the other is not, and th esapphire is also a lot cheaper in price. so can someone explain that to me?


Sapphire ATI Radeon X1600PRO 512MB DDR2 AGP8x Graphics Card - VGA, DVI, Video-Out
ATI Radeon X1600Pro 512MB DDR2 AGP8x Graphics Card (original) - VGA, DVI, Video-Out





And is Sapphire is not a bad choice to go with, how would the sapphire X1600 Pro compare to this card?

Sapphire ATI Radeon X800GTO 256MB DDR2 AGP8X Graphics Card - VGA, DVI, Video-Out
 
Eh. If you plain on buying that card DON'T. Theres much better cards for the price. Hell theres cheaper cards that are better.
 
ATI branded cards tend to be more expensive than the 3rd party guys.
 
i want to go with ati since they have that thing with amd going on, proabally better support hahahaha
 
but which would be btter between the two cards?:

Sapphire ATI Radeon X1600PRO 512MB DDR2 AGP8x Graphics Card - VGA, DVI, Video-Out

Sapphire ATI Radeon X800GTO 256MB DDR2 AGP8X Graphics Card - VGA, DVI, Video-Out

Click to expand...

I'm not an ATI guy so I probably wouldn't be able to comment well. However, you're running a 3200+ processor... I highly doubt you'll see much difference between the two.

Not that you will use it, but the 512mb ram always looks nice.
 
well these two cards are about equal, but if I were you, and I MUST buy one of those i'd go for the x800GTO.

But if you're not tight with cash, you should go to the nVidia's 7600GT for $60-$80 more.

(where i live, difference is 500kn more, which is 1 dollar for 6 kuna, so my estimation could be wrong, 'cause im looking by local shop's prices) :D
 
I second Hardcores decision. The price/performance of the 7600GT can't be beat. ;)
 
how much of a differance will it make if im planning on getting an amd dual core processor? like how will it affect the performance of my vid card?
