Which graphics card is better?

Theman000 · #1 11th Jan 2008, 06:26

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.

yeah, I have bought mine on ebay too. Was certainly much cheaper than the £100 one in PC world :p.
I'll let you know how it compares to my old card once it arrives
