ati 9500 pro vs gf4 ti 4400

how do each of these stack against one another? my friend has been having frame rate problems (everquest) with his gf4 and I'm thinking it's either RAM or vcard. Last I played half a year ago I had no problems with my 9500 pro.
 
Doesn't this question come up every other day?
Without AA/AF; they're about the same.
Crank up the AA/AF; the 9500 is much faster.
 
umm ill 100% dissagree... 9500pro is 10% slower than 9700pro in MOST benchmarks... how much faster is the 9700pro from a 4600? a crap load.
 
thanks for the replies. I was basically trying to narrow down the problems my friend was having. I basically wanted to know if the 2 video cards were roughly on the same order.
 
How much ram does your friend have? I believe everquest is a pretty memory hungry game, so that could be a problem.

With a 9700 once again its main strengths over a 4600 come at high res and with aa and af enabled. Also, a 9500 pro is more than 10% slower than a 9700 pro, it's maybe 10% slower than a 9700np. I'd point you to the benchmarks that were linked earlier that show some of this.

 
512 rambus on a dell p4 1.4 i think. his system overheats at times too. and it's not overclocked. i duno, i think it's time to get a new cpu/mb.
 
Evdawg: Have you ever looked at a benchmark? There's only about 10,000 on the internet between the GF4 series and Radeon 9500/9600. No AA/AF, they're the same, or the GF4 is faster depending on clock speed. AA/AF, Radeon pulls away. That's pretty much common knowledge to anyone who has a clue....
