|

My current PC is:XP 2800+,6600GT,1024 RAM
Im planning to upgrade GC to 7600GT and Id like to ask anyone who had similar upgrade how it helped him.
e.g. How big was FPS leap in Ghost Recon:AW or Oblivion ?

not good max 20-30fps more
the only good thing you can do is switching to a 7800gs

Thanks for your opinions but I need exact results.They will speak fof themselves...
btw.20-30 FPS would be tremendiously great but such a big leap seems to me very far-fetched

Hm. running a A8N SLI Deluxe myself so no prob, I think ur right but, no APG as far as I have read...sorry.
But this is just mind blowing...or stupid witch ever way you see it.
"The marketing material included with the card claims NVIDIA requires at least a 450W power supply for a single GeForce 8800GTX, and 400W for the 8800GTS. Top tier vendors in Taiwan have already confirmed with DailyTech that GeForce 8800 cards in SLI mode will likely carry a power supply "recommendation" of 800W. "

I upgraded from 6800 128 mb to 7800 GS 256 mb.
From minimum details in Dark Messiah and louzy FPS I went to 30-40 FPS with everything on max. So yeah it helps quite a lot.
But also depending whether you have lot of money to spend. I'd wait for a proper DX10 card (and not those 7900 cards, which eventually will run at minimum settings when the real DX10 games will come)
I myself have an AGP slot and am not planning to upgrade for PCI-e cards and the stuff. So getting a 7800 GS is basicly the best card I can get for my rig. Thus imo worth the investment.

i went from 6600GT to a 6800GS and it gave me like 30% fps boost... i imagine a 7xxx+ would do a shitload more, if u can utilize all the SLI etc options... i couldnt so such an expensive upgrade wasnt needed
happy wit me 6800 tho

It's a big jump, especially considering the price.
A 7600GT beats a 6800GT, so you can imagine how much faster it is then a 6600GT.
And unless you've got $400-500 to drop on a DX10 card there is no point in waiting.
The high end cards come next month but I don't think the sub $200 DX10 cards will be out before March.
edit: specifically on Oblivion, ATi cards run the game much better. But they don't have any decent cards for the price range of a 7600GT.
I do not hail Caesar

With that piece of shit proccesor you can't get the full potential of the 6600GT let alone the 7600GT, get a new proc and 2gb ram that would be a much much better upgrade. |
