Radeon 9600 Pro

Hey, does anyone know if this card is decent or not? I desperately need a new card, but I really don't have more than 200 bucks. If anyone has any input on this card, or a better one to suggest under 200 bucks, that would be great.

Get a 9500 Pro instead.

You say "i dotn really have any money" then you say "I only have 200"

you should be happy you can get a card that can play new games.....

i cant even afford a Geforce 4 MX 440 which is like 50 bucks =(

Don't spam my thread bitches. Anyways, anyone else have an opinion?

If you have a very lousy power supply, get a 9600. Otherwise, a 9500 Pro is better (it's faster, despite being a lower number.)

I know. In all the benchmark's i've seen, 9500 Pro is almost 10% better at higher resolutions. If I can find a 9500 Pro around my local area, I'll get it.

That has nothing to do with a graphics card. Besides... it's too much.

Uncapped, you should try to find a site online that gives a good price + free shipping, local stores (the ones around me anyways) are always overpriced. I got my speakers 40 dollars under retail, with free shipping (and you have to pay tax at local stores too).

Oh my god, I just realized that I have like a 10 year old sound card. Should I get a new one of those, too?

uncapped · Posted 2003-06-29, 03:26 PM in reply to uncapped's post "Radeon 9600 Pro"

You could get a Sound Blaster Live! for 30 bucks if you don't mind it not having a box or manuals.

Last question. I have a 4x AGP slot. Will this matter, since the card is 8x?

uncapped · Posted 2003-07-03, 06:58 AM in reply to uncapped's post "Radeon 9600 Pro"

The card will run at 4x. That means the data transfer will be slower.

uncapped · Posted 2003-07-03, 08:22 PM in reply to uncapped's post "Radeon 9600 Pro"

4x and 8x is barely noticably different.

uncapped · Posted 2003-07-03, 08:25 PM in reply to uncapped's post "Radeon 9600 Pro"

Ok, thanks. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna try out the shadowlands beta. Or at least watch the patch d/l bar slowly move.
