larry Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 I have a tnt2 16 meg. Would I notice a big difference going to a radeon 8500 64meg? I only play Unreal Tournement so far. Just getting into games. Sorry. Don't know if this is hardware forum or general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM5K Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 You'll see some improvement, but it really depends on your cpu, if you have a 300mhz K62 the diffrence won't be as big as if you have a 1GHZ Athlon. What are your specs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToastGodSupreme Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 Screw the Ti500. Get a gainward Ti200 and overclock it to Ti500 speeds. GAINWARD Has to be GAINWARD understand? Why? They o/c the best. GAINWARD uses choice parts. :) It'll save you some money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyy4 Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Neither of those cards in your poll kick @$$! I would suggest a NVidia GeForce 4 Ti--that'll kick everybody's @$$!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neowin_hipster Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 8500 is far better than geforce 3 but geforce 4 kicks all ass. 8500 has much better image quality too. Geforce4 fixed the problem and is the first nvidia card with a nice picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
