1) Gainward nVIDIA GeForce BLISS 7300 GT 256MB DDR 2

2) PINE XFX Geforce 7300GS 256MB DDRII 256bit DVI

what's the diffrence ? which better and should i get any of those ?

The Gainward card is fanless, have a large copper heatsink instead. That is giving adequate cooling.

XFX, borrows memory from the PC RAM. ( I.e. TurboCache Supported)

And according to reviews, Gainward is the better card.

If you are planning on overclock this card? Make sure your case have good cooling.

Just have in mind, that 7300 is'nt really a "gaming card".

If you are looking for a gaming card that is pretty cheap but still good, I would say.

X800GTO: A good upper middle row videocard. The card model before X1800GTO.

7600GT
X1800GTO: 7600GT and X1800GTO, is pretty even without enabling higher quality settings. Higher quality settings, X1800GTO wins. Raw power, then 7600GT wins So here you will have to consider if you want A) Very good image quality? Then X1800GTO. B) High framerates? Then 7600GT.

X850XT: A very expensive card for about a year back in time. But when the Radeon X1900XT and XTX models arrived it dropped much in price. 16 pixel pipelines and fast. Can run any game at high settings. Lacks support for HDR. But on the other hand. HDR cost pretty much videocard resources. And not may games supports this for now.

what do you recommend - 7600GT or X1800GTO ?



Posted by: goranpaa

Well, after seeing what the reviewers have said when they compaired GF 7600GT and X1800GTO. And as I myself are a sucker for best image quality possible. I would recommend the X1800GTO. Also HIS (Hightech), always have had good cooling on their cards.

X1800 GTO is better, 256 bit memory over 128 bit, and faster.
