yar i had a 6200 with my current setup and i got like 1000 3dmarks (on 3dMark05) with a 6800gs i get over 5000 marks (5500 to be exact) thats with generic ram at that (in both cases) a 6600gt is lowest card u should every buy personally i think they should be cheaper the only reason to buy a 6200 is if u own an nforce mobo and need somethin to run ur monitor as the only game i know it can run good is battlefield 2 and it can play half life 2 ok overall if u want the 6200 for gaming dont expect to be playin any games that are more then a year old even decently (except bf2)
getting either of those cards by this point wouldnt really be considered an upgrade, especially if you play any newer games. Nvidia cards prices are dropping ive noticed. Believe me, you get what you pay for.
"nd remember if your going to post a link to a website make sure they ship to Canada." 9600XT or 9800SE, now your turn to do your homework to find out who can ship to Canada
Well, If you guys didnt know, theres a big difference between the CDN Dollar and American Dollar. A card thats 160 CDN is around 100 American, so I dont know if its actually overpriced. http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1960934&Tab=0&NoMapp=0 That seems to be the best value but it is a bit expensive.
Yes, it is probably the best value but it has a horible cooling solution. Rouge, ONLY THE TC VERSION OF THE 6200 UTILIZE THE TURBO CACHE FEATURE! The LE versions do not support such a feature! Information is good, but bad information is worse than no information at all.
i know some of them dont have TC, but even the ones without TC cant do anything good, now the 9550 is alot better than the 6200
Good day, how about this one: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2145957&CatId=0 $56.99 after rebate But the 9600xt is better and faster, so the 9600xt is really a better choice. $88.06 Canadian dollar. Here's a 9600xt with 256MB videomemory http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=11158&vpn=VCSR96P256&manufacture=SAPPHIRE Edit: the same radeon 9600xt, but with 128MB videomemory is just for $64.98 CAD http://www.cancomputer.com/index.php?sku=4950 The choice is yours! Good luck!
