Will the 6600GT or the 4650 be better for SIMS 3???? My wife's computer's vid is PCI E so I'm wondering about the horses needed to play Sims 3. If I get a 4770 for mine which should I put in hers???? -----Original Message----- From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of John R Steinbruner Sent: Wednesday, May 27, 2009 11:58 To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: Re: [H] ATI 4650 From what I have seen and read, the 4770 is the Cat's Meow in low cost video cards for now. That new 40 micron process is really really really good. :) On May 27, 2009, at 9:47 PM, mark.dodge wrote: > Well I was bummed to find that a 4650 w/ 1GB will not beat a 6600GT > with 512 > in Doom3. > > I thought that I would get quite a bit of performance, 77 FPS versus > 71 FPS > @1024X768 High Quality > > I guess I'm now looking for something a bit better for around 100 > bucks or > so. > > Will a 4770 be a lot better?? > > > > Mark > > MD Computers, Houston, TX > > > -- JRS stei...@pacbell.net Facts do not cease to exist just because they are ignored.
