nVidia Ti 4600 or go ATI 9500 Pro ????????

[HardwareAddicted]

I need a good card for around $200

I've always been a nVidia guy.... and have had good results.

But I'm not sure that ATI doesn't have good struff too... it's just been awhile since I have used them.

Where do the performance numbers fall at around $200 ?

Thx for your input...

Check out the new Flip Chip FX5600 Ultra. Looks pretty good and had DX9 support and good AA and AF.

I think 4600?s are quite a it more $ than a 9500pro. Without AA+AF the 4600 is a little faster, but with AA+AF the 9500 can be a lot faster.

For $235 you maybe can squeeze a 9700 (non-pro). LOT faster than either 4600 or 9500pro. 9500pro? run ~ $170, ?4600?s run $265 or higher (using ncix.com pricing).

My preference would be the 9500p or 9700, but I?m an ATI guy.

I just buy whatever cards that has the best price/performance at the moment.

Get the 9500pro for better image quality too!

radeon 9700 non pro goes for only 220 off of newegg

9500 pro or 9700 non pro. They are both better cards than a g4 ti4600
