Is the X300 one-up from the 9600? - Page 3

stop arguing.

If those are ur choices, forget the crap about 'generations' X300 is a budget card, 9600 is a mainstream card.
Technical 'stats' are utterly pointless at times. This is one of those times.

Its not an arguable position. the X300 is nowhere near the 9600 in performance. Its a different level.

as for the 9600 normal and Pro? Ill let u guys figure it out.

(Also, you might want to try to get it from a 3rd party(HIS, Powercolor, Saphire, they are nearly ALWAYS better in performance(the other aspects? such as build quality? no clue))

dont wanna be rude or n e thing but why only get a 9600? i assume ur earning from a full time job

im 17 with only a part time job, and i still have to pay for stuff contributions to the house etc ..... and i just upgraded my pc in one go from a mid end pc i had b4.....now it never has to be upgraded again for another 2-3 years maybe longer ( that is if there isnt some huge graphics card leap that spawns some kind of insane mega graphics card that will end all graphics cards forever)

specs r pentium 4 3.5ghz

x800pro 256meg

2 gig of ddr ram

two 120 gig hard drives

few other things like top notch power supply duel layer dvd drive good quality case

also i hafta pay college travel and materials and stuff and i only get say Â£80-Â£100 a week....depending on how many hours im put down for

so y is it that the people who can afford it buy low end teahat stuff?

sorry again it just puzzles me now im probably gonna get moaned at
