|
 |
Story:
I am no longer happy with my Geforce 5900XT - starting with low fps and shitty gfx (4-15fps) in Oblivion than following Hitman Blood Money (9 - 15 fps) made me really unhappy So I am deciding to buy new graphic card, for a low price.
And "I dont want to" afford GPU like nvidia 7800, because in one year i will be rebuilding my whole computer - so for now I need a "quick fix" GPU
btw I dont need better graphics (I am not really picky:), but I need good performance (arround 20-35 fps).
Long storry short:
I want to buy new GPU. Which one? (they are about the same price)
ATI RadeonX700Pro,256GDDR3, AGP,VGA/DVI/TVo,LRet
ATI Radeon9800SE Advantage,256DDR,VGA/DVI/TVout
Could I play current games (oblivion, hitman) with 30 fps, medium detail (shadows off)?
So if you have any experience with these cards, please write something
thx
my comp:
AMD Sempron 2800
1 GB RAM
MB: with AGP slot only
current GPU: nvidia Geforce 5900XT

i have both cards but in other setting ie x700se 512mb and 9800pro 128
and i can't even start to describe the difference in 9800 and x700 i will only tell you that my 9800pro DESTROYS MY SHITTY x700 in about every aspect.
btw i heard rumors back in the time thta you can unlock 9800se to pro so i would check on that.

a.9800pro was the best highend card of its generation while x700 is midrange at best.
b.oblivion runs like a dream on 9800pro at 1024 with all settings on med-high with 2aa.

9800 Pro. I have been using it for past 2 years+. With only 128MB AGP. Plays all latest games (HL2 Episode1, Condemned, Hitman) at 1024 on high details. Runs great.
