O.P. Graphics card
Hey guys I wanted to buy a new graphics card and now I need your help. The one I wanted was out of stock :sad:. Ok second choice: Delivery date unknown :dodgy:. Ok third choice: 'Nah it's crap'. You know what I mean...

Now I'm stuck with 3 cards and I dont know which one is best for lowest price :S.

1. MSI RX1950PRO-VT2D -> € 231,98
GPU: Radeon X1950 PRO - 600 MHz
Memory: 512 MB GDDR3 - 1400 MHz - 256 Bit

2. MSI X1950XT-T2D -> € 266,68*
GPU: Radeon X1950 XT - 625 MHz
Memory: 256 MB GDDR3 - 1800 MHz - 256 Bit

3. HIS RX1950XT IceQ3 Turbo -> € 316,25*
GPU: Radeon X1950 XT - 650 MHz
Memory: 256 MB GDDR3 - 1800 MHz - 256 Bit

(All prices from my shop)

I hope my given information helps you helping me. If not then tell me. I search everything you must know.

THX in advance :).

RE: Graphics card
I'd order the first one, its the lowest price, and its not too far from the other's performance, another option could be the third one but by the price i tought maybe you wont need it. :p

imo the first one although has not the better performance its cheaper and the best for its price

O.P. RE: Graphics card
The price isn't that big problem. If a card costs 200€ then I pay 200. When it costs 500€ I pay 500. I need power and thats the problem. Look at the GPUs and the memory of each card. You see what I mean?

Indeed.
If you need power, get an Nvidia 8800 GTX

If you don't need much too power, get an 7900 GT or an 7800.

Nvidia are only good for games, apart from that there crap. IMO if your not a big gamer person, go for ATI ,  but IMO you should go for the Number 2 you mentioned

I have had a nVidia, and a 2 ATI's

both the ATI cards crapped out on me and the nVidia is going perfect for me.

I dont play games that much, but all i can say is nVidia is 500 times better than ATI.
