Radeon 9800 vs 5950 geforce fx

9800 pro is better, or if you want to hurt your wallet 9800 pro XTs are even better. But both are better than the 5950.
 
Well, to be honest, they are both great cards. They both are neck and neck speed wise.

I have been a diehard Nvidia fan since TNT days. I loved the cards and the driver team was awesome. Drivers are incredibly easy to install and not have to worry about them. ATI drivers didn't used to be very good and their driver team basically sucked.

That's all changed now. I have a 5900 in my main system. I was building a friend a PC and got a good price on a 9700 Pro so decided to see whta it was all about.

In side to side comparisons, performance was basically the same in the 2 online games I play.

Where the REAL difference comes into play though is the image quality. The 9700 is better. It's not like night and day but, you can tell a difference. The textures are not as blurrred as they are with the 5900.

So, basically, I gotta recommend the 9800 for you. As much as that hurts to say, I got to admit to the truth.

I never thought I would see the day I would recommend an ATI card.
 
memorie_and_data, you've been around long enough to know The Rules and what various forums are here.

So why do you post an obvious vid card question in gen hard? Please try to post to the most appropriate forum.
 
=-/ sorry but i was on a hurry and I was already on the general hardware section =-(


edit: what 9800 pro seems decent for under 500?
