| 356276 | 2005-05-18 09:45:00 | what would be the best PCI-e card to work with a Athlon 64 3500+? | chuck9 (8152) | ||
| 356277 | 2005-05-18 11:11:00 | I'll take a wild guess and presume you mean graphics cards? Radeon X850XT PE :) |

| 356278 | 2005-05-18 11:16:00 | Yeah,sorry i do mean graphics card. | chuck9 (8152) | ||
| 356279 | 2005-05-18 21:10:00 | So you are after a PCI-express graphics card? You CPU is not relevant to the choice. Either you want to use the card for gaming - in which case nothing less than a 600GT - or you aren't using it for gaming in which case whatever card takes your fancy. | pctek (84) | ||

| 356282 | 2005-05-19 01:01:00 | I agree with Metla its no good using a Duron/celeron with a gf 6800 ultra 256 mb/Radeon X850XT 256mb card,Playing Doom 3/Far Cry/Half Life 2 compared to a system with a balance of cpu/graphics card.If you want a high grade system then everything has to be high grade as well mb, cpu,graphics card,sound card, hard drives,ram otheswise something is allways going to be holding you back from that high benchmark that is a A grade system at least in benchmarks anyway. | memphis (2869) | ||
