Default Which graphics card is better?

Hi,

I just have a very short question. My ati radeon x1300 pro 256mb (PCI-express) broke several days ago. I have since been looking for a good (cheap) replacement card. I noticed the ati radeon x1650 pro 512 mb is available for around £50.

My question is: would this card perform better than my previous x1300 pro? I noticed that my x1300 pro was not really suitable for playing COD 4 for example, would this card do a better job?

Thanks in advance

Go for one that uses very little power and is quiet.

Yes the x1650 should perform better than your old card.

I'll let you know how it compares to my old card once it arrives
