I want to know to play games... And I must admit, I'm a total graphic card n00b. I won't play games like Crysis and such, so I don't need a uber thing, but I'll need something that will be good enough for some years... I need to choose between them because they're the only ones that come with the XPS 420. |
8600GTS is perhaps 5-10% better than the 2600XT in games, but 2600XT is better at video playback and should be $50 cheaper too. If the 2600XT is cheaper, go with that.
Ubuntu. Linux for human beings.
If you are interested in trying Ubuntu or Linux in general, PM me and I will answer your questions and help you install it if you wish.
