7600GT vs. X1900GT rev. 2

[PR1M3R]

Like the title, 7600GT went bye-bye and I bought a Sapphire X1900GT rev.2 to replace it.

Just wondering what kind of performance difference I will see with the X1900GT?

Specs of the two cards

I would say the 1900GT would be about twice as fast *almost* as the 7600.

128-bit vs. 256-bit.

Benchmarks of the X1900GT first Revision. But the cards are almost the same

I can give you my experiences, without benchmarks to back it up.

e6400 @ 2.4GHz
2GB DDR2

Recently only been playing WoW.

x1900gt rev2 ran 1600x1200 + 4xAA smooth as silk with all eye candy on (everything pushed to limits)
7600GT would only run 1280x1024 under same settings

Note: 7600GT was purchased as a replacement card from the forums here when the x1900gt (Sapphire) started overheating and artifacting up badly (ten month old card, never overclocked). (Newegg honored their "standard return policy" very well and refunded 95% of my original purchase price, no complaints on their service at all!)

x1900gt is supposed to be very fast, but it's a hot mofo!
