Funny you say that, I actually purchased the ATI 4670 first because I was told it would be better (http://www.frys.com/product/5851543?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG ). I returned it and got the BFG 9800 GT, which actually performs slightly better. I know my CPU isn't the greatest, but a superior video card would still greatly improve performance. However, a better video card would also require a superior power supply. |
Yep the 9800GT definately performs better! Im not even sure how you're getting games which require dual cores to work. Bravo to you I guess because I would have thought a P4 at this point would be completely inadequate for games. Your maximum performance would probably scale with your CPU performance, im sure if you overclocked the CPU you'd see almost linear performance improvement relative to CPU performance.
