Hello

Im having trouble deciding between a few graphic cards, so i decided to ask you...

XFX - Geforce 9600GT 512MB DDR3 DUAL DVI PCI-E
MSI - RADEON RX3850 512MB DDR3 2XDVI/PCI- E/TV-OUT
Asus - EN9600GT/HTDI/512M
Asus - Radeon HD3850 512MB DDR3

All graphic Card have 512mb and GDDR3

I have the following system:

Intel DQ965GF Motherboard
Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.4GHz
4gb DDR2 800

I wont overclock any.
I will be gaming at a resolution of 1280 x 1024.

Which do you think is the highest performance card?

BTW, I'll be doing video editing, if my editing is affected by the video card, which would be better for the video editing also...

Thanks...

I think you should go with Radeon HD3870 i know it's not listed but i think it will be the best choice!

i found this one on the page that you send ( Asus - Radeon HD3870 512MB DDR4 - 135€ )


Bye

i second the 3870. 9600GT is tempting, but GDDR4 is better, and the 3870 performs better than the 9600GT. prices may be dropping, but that doesn't make it the best option.
