297664 2004-11-29 04:45:00 Whats the best brand of radeon GFX card? if they all have the same specs what will run the best? Rpg_pro (5689)
297665 2004-11-29 04:53:00 jeeez, this thread is the stuff wars are made of......
whatever you get, make sure the specs are what you want or have been recommended.
I found gcube a bit confusing, but I have one and it's fine.
At the end of the day, a card's a card a card. Just get a good one at the best price, or with the best software that comes with it.
BTW, which version are you looking at?

297667 2004-11-29 04:55:00 im looking at getting 9600 pro and/or 9800 pro Rpg_pro (5689)
297668 2004-11-29 05:11:00 and/or?

What are you going to do with 2?

Anyhow,Both good cards,but the 9800pro is a powehouse compared to the 9600pro.

The brand won't matter unless your looking to OC,and even then it will be down to specific models....

about 3 months ago went into my favourite store and said I felt the need for more video grunt. Wanted a 9600xt. He said try this. A triplex 9600xt, the box looked it should have held organic cornflakes with the covering graphics remeniscent of a guy who drew it while on a acid flashback about a bad experience with an octopus.
Triplex----- WHFAT I said ? Anyway to cut a long story short He said $275 inclusive u dont like you bring back, doesn't have to have a fault.
It has performed faultlessly, does exactly what i need to do. I dont overclock vid cards but the benchmarks are right up there with other 9600 xt's
Usually I am a brand snob but this sort of opened my eyes a bit.

297672 2004-11-29 08:47:00 I built 2 near identical comps,ran them side by side,One had a (damn expensive) ASUS G4ti4200,and the other a cheap as chips Leadtek G4ti4200......The Leadtek pulled 1800 more 3dmark points.

I sold the ASUS.

Still running the Leadtek.
