Hi, I want to know how much faster the readeon is compared to my pretty bad 8500GT (it cannot run AOE III or NFSMW maxed out :( ). Reviews are good for the ATi, and I know neither of them is top notch by any means (the 5670 was launched some days ago). I plan to build a completely new system later on in the year, but as a casual gamer I want something better that doesn't require a lot of power or is very expensive now. My LCD monitor is a humble Samsung 933 (19in.). Thanks for all the info you can give me.
The 8500GT is pretty low end & can barely be considered a gaming card. The HD4670 is MUCH better.
Thank you very much, so the little radeon is a worthwile upgrade then :)
Good gosh, I can run AOE III maxed out on an old Radeon AIW 9600XT. Skip
i have a radeon 4670 and it's a nice little bargain card. if you can cross two of them...that's where it's at !
Thanks,
"Good gosh, I can run AOE III maxed out on an old Radeon AIW 9600XT."Yes, the nVidia 8500 GT really sucks, It can't even run games of its era or even older without lagging. I think it's the worst piece of hardware I've ever bought. :(
