Purchase Choice

[JohnSearle]

I have a choice between a couple cards:

XFX 7900GT KO (256MB)
or,
BFG 8500 GS (512MB)

I haven't been able to find any benchmarks that give me an easy comparison. The price seems to be comparible, though.

Any thoughts?

7900gt is the better choice but if I were you I wouldn't go with neither at this point.

Go with a 1950pro or if you can find a 8600gts for 1950pro price.

8500's aren't for gaming. So go with the 7900 or a X1950.
