The ATI beats the 8600GT in everyway. However, if you don't mind horrible drivers, then get the 3650

**Slashmolder** · 04-27-2008, 06:15 PM

The GeForce is by far a nicer card but, the other one is cheaper and has more VRAM. So I really don't know I guess listen to the advice above.

krackhead · 04-27-2008, 08:56 PM

dont get them. get this Click Me! for only $95 and it is alot faster than those two.

faster154 · 04-27-2008, 09:37 PM

Its sold out.

shmo70 · 04-27-2008, 09:47 PM

Hey,
You should get the 8800GT, you can play all the latest games on the Highest Settings, besides crysis. I have an XFX 8800GT and love it. Its $60 over your budget but you should get a cheaper mobo instead and get this card. A vid card is more important than a mobo.

faster154 · 04-27-2008, 10:00 PM

Any recommended Motherboards.

shmo70 · 04-27-2008, 10:09 PM

I heard that these were good:
Asus p5k
Gigabyte P35-DS3L
Motherboard ECS A780GM-A AM2 780G Motherboard

Check this link out:
http://pcper.com/hwlb.php

It has the best parts for each budget.

and also check out the forums on pcper.com . They will also give you some great advice on budget mobo's and other parts

**Links 2 3 4** · 04-28-2008, 06:23 AM

Abit's the best mobo out of there, then the ds3.

...

AMD beats NVIDIA? This isn't 2005... I'd say save your money, get a 8800gs (apparently a 9600gto now...), get a e6550 or whatever, and oc the crap out of it. Get the GSKILL RAM: it's cheaper and better. Case is meh, but whatever. Please god tell me you have a 500+ watt good powersupply to run this, and you're not getting a 5 dollar one from newegg, or with the case

fscrp · 04-28-2008, 10:41 AM

Do you already have a powersupply? The case you link to does not include one.

A plus for this case in my book is the size of the fans - 120mm don't need to spin as fast resulting in a quieter overall system. My last build was all about keeping things quiet.

I agree with krackhead's suggestion of the 8800GTS, it has a great performance/price ratio.

faster154 · 04-28-2008, 11:12 AM

Yes but i have a 450 Watt power supply.

unless it has 30amps on the 12v rail, and a reliable brand, you need a new one.

faster154 · 04-28-2008, 05:58 PM

Yeah It has 30 Amps.

fscrp · 04-29-2008, 12:44 PM

^^
that one is worse than what he has in mind

fscrp · 04-30-2008, 11:01 AM

The 8800GTS has twice the balls of the 8600GT for an extra $20 and it kills the Radeon 3650.

The review below of the 3650 has numbers on a lot of other video cards included - granted the 8800 GTS in the review has more memory, but that won't bring the one I linked down to the level of an 8600 or 3650

http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/P...HD_3650/1.html

**Links 2 3 4** · 05-03-2008, 07:22 PM

lmao, good luck running a card on 18amps. You'll fry something for sure. You need a new psu, period.

faster154 · 05-03-2008, 07:25 PM

What videocard could i get that is good and can be run with that PSU.

**Links 2 3 4** · 05-03-2008, 07:35 PM

Anything without a extra power adapter... so at the best, a 8600gt.

Still, I don't think it could run that...
