Lol i have a old satallite SA60 laptop with and ATI Radeon 7000 IGP AGP
And a customized pc with a Nvidia 6200 card.. not so great.. :P

And for the people that don't know what graphics card they have, Start -> Run -> DxDiag -> Screen. you should be able to see it there

Nvidia I say is the way to go. All my computers run on Nvdia GeForce cards, and I have to say dual graphics cards is not comparable to integrated or singular graphics at all.

Nvdia GeForce makes your PC's overall performance better, does ATI Radeon does that to? And what about dual? SLI is only possible with 2 identical cards and CrossFire is possible with all Radeon HD cards.
Im not sure tho..

Well lets just say I can run 2 copies of Crysis simultaneously without lag. (the processor is working pretty hard too...)

Though, I have made all of my Computers with GeForce cards because after researching them They were the best according to Consumer reports and reviews. Plus I think the colors are more vibrant than the Radeon HD's

I currently use a Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT (512MB DDR3), I can run Crysis on medium with no lag.

Accompanied with 2.00 Dual Core, it runs fine.

Well just a question, is my card good?


it's a pretty good car

@DDX what processor?

It is a Xeon processor,

Quad core overclocked at 3.5 Ghz, Currently H2O cooled since I am poor and can't afford freon or something. Though I probably wouldn't need it anyway.

I think im going to choose 2X ATI 2650 HD 4650 1GB (modified by Club3D)
Is that good enough to play games in 2 years?

Next issue: AMD Phenom II(2) X4 940 Black edition OR Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550

And a question.. Are there motherboards that have a 775socket and Crossfire?

eh... use 1 nvdia GeForce 9800 GX2. You can sue the extra space for a cooling system or something.
