Well yes but you see for some reason the 256 mb version of the 8800 is not available in France. Bloody baguette totting cheese eating bastards! ARGH! Anyway, the Radeon card will do. As for Crysis, I will wait 1-2 years then play it, just like I did with FarCry

Since I don't want to change the topic of my other thread. Should I keep vista on my new machine or switch it to Win XP 64 bit version? From what I read DX10 is GPU heavy and I won't be able to use it for a while. Is Vista that compatible anyway? I'd hate to have a new OS that doesn't work well, and...

Wait a minute the 3850 IS the same price! SCORE! Winder if it is on a performance level to the 8800 equivalent. I say, in France graphics cards ar overpriced.

You know if the 8600 GTS were the same price as those upper level cards, I would not have even started this post.

Been doign some research and heard miwed opinions regarding the 8500 gt, so I figure I should get the 8600 gts 256 mb then. It makes me wonder why they say cards like a 8300gs is DX10 compatible if you won't be able to use the features. Is that bad advertising? If I were in the US I'd sue lol.

Sigh I feel so outdated. I'll tell you one thing though, computer parts are a lot cheaper in the Americas, France gets screwed badly pricewise.

Forgot one card - Radeon X1950 GT 512 Mo DDR3, how about that one?

Well you see the reason I am asking is that the graphics card is what comes with the system, at no extra cost to me. Since I am getting the system very cheap, even though its not a bad machine, I seem to be kinda screwed on the graphics department. So adding a graphics card would be a good thing if ...

Well I am basically upgrading the whole system. So the new machine, a Packard Bell, has a PCI-E slot, Athlon X2 4400 2 gig RAM, not bad at all (love the special student prices they have in Europe). The only downside is that I get what seems to me a basic level card. Can anyone give the equivalent of...

Oh and I am open to suggestions on the ATI front as well by the way.

Even though my Radeon 9200 is at least 4 years old? As for games, well right now I play FF XI, which is not that heavy on the graphics department, but I would like to play Jade Empire and have it look decent. Also I was hoping to be able to play FarCry, Medal of Honor, and Dynasty Warriors 4 without...

Before I hear the usual yes I know there are better cards out there, but I am updating from a Radeon 9200 card. I do not consider myself a hard core gamer and anyways I tend to play games but graphics are not THAT important to me. I would like to upgrade the card but I am NOT shelling out more than ...

New guy here hello all. I live in France but I am not French. Hmmm... tahts about it for now.
