Who's Better?

the 2600 cards are a joke for gaming compared to the 9600gso. I would go with the EVGA model. just make sure you have a decent power supply especially if you want to overclock the 9600gso.
 
what about the new 4670 cards?

i believe those can compare favourably to the 96GSO cards in some circumstances.

yes they beat a stock clocked 4670 in 95% of cases but they are currently selling for full $79.99 retail plus shipping. that EVGA 9600GSO has free shipping so total cost is $49.99 after rebate. also the 9600GSO core and memory can be heavily overclocked where as the 4670 cant be pushed much further. the 4670 is smaller and does use less power so it has its good points but it needs some rebates to make sense choosing it over the 9600GSO.
 
9600 for sure, but I would honestly try to save up 50 more bucks more and pic up an 8800gts G92 for $100 at evga b-stock. Only setback is a 90 day warranty instead of lifetime. If you're a gambler, go for it! Your gaming experience would be great for a very good price. But if its absolutely 50 bucks, the 9600. :)

NOTE: I just noticed that the 9600's are around 100 haha

Thats a damn good deal. I was just going to suggest he hold out and just buy an 8800GT since their on sale all the time but for $100 good luck beating a GTS G92
 

If I only had 50 bucks I would save up some more, especially if gaming is your intended purpose.
