Upgrade x800pro to 7600gt? For Company of Heroes...

[EstimateMe]

Just wondering if anybody thought it would be worth it to get a 7600GT for $99AR, and try to sell my x800pro PCI-E (maybe $70?). The x800pro has the 256bit mem interface, but the 7600gt can probably clock to 600mhz easy (compared to 500mhz on the x800). They both have 12 pipes.

7900GS would be a worthy upgrade, but I'm interested in only spending like $30 or $40.

Thoughts?

probably not a big jump in frame rate, IIRC a X800PRO performs around the same as a 6800GT.

If you can afford it you would probably be better off going for a 7900GS....that what I'm doing to replace my 6800GT.

I wouldn't think it would be worth the hassle to go to a 7600GT. It would be a little better, but might as well get something better, such as the 7900GS or X1950Pro.

x800pro to 7600gt isnt worth it get at least a 7900gs. 7900gt's can be had for ~190 new from froogle. You could probably get one for around 170-180 used.
