    Hi, im not sure if this is the right forum for this, but it seems accurate. I'm looking for a video card to satisfy my needs. I'm not a big gamer, but would like to play some more recent games (i have a Radeon 9200, so you cna see how i need upgrade) Out of the following three (or if you can recommend others thatd be great), which GPU would be the best for its price. I am not a heavy gamer so my budget is approx $150-160CND. Here are three i found:

    i) Sapphire ATI Radeon X1600 Pro 512MB DDR2 DVI Tv-Out 8X AGP Graphics Card ($159.00 CND)

    ii) XFX GeForce 6800 XT nVidia GeForce 6800XT Chipset (350Mhz) 256MB (1GHz) 8 Pixel Shader Processor Dual DVI AGP ($149.99 CND)

    iii) Asus N7600GS/HTD/256MB nVidia GeForce 7600GS (400MHz) 256MB DDR (500MHz) DVI-I TV-Out AGP ($159.99 CND)

    Id go for the "Asus N7600GS/HTD/256MB nVidia GeForce 7600GS (400MHz) 256MB DDR (500MHz) DVI-I TV-Out AGP ($159.99 CND)" I have a eVGA 7600GS and its faster then a 6800XT stock, and with a little volt modding a 7600GS will hit 750 Core easy... Take a look here for a good comparison...

    Ive got that XFX card and its REALLY fast, hits 500/1300 no problem and nears 7600GT performance. Im sure u could OC the 7600GS and get it up there but thats just my 2 cents

    hands down
