• ATI Radeon HD 3300 VS Geforce 8600GT
    15 replies, posted
I've been holding my 8600GT for quite a while now, and I've been wanting to upgrade my CPU, which requires a complete overhaul of my mobo and RAM. The motherboard I'm looking at currently has a Radeon HD 3300 in it, and I was wondering if it was any near close, or even better than my current 8600GT. Oh: And yes, I can use my GT in the new Mobo I was just wondering if the Radeon was better.
Pretty sure that the 8600 is better. Of course they're both pretty shit.
[QUOTE=Generic Monk;18006536]Pretty sure that the 8600 is better. Of course they're both pretty shit.[/QUOTE] Agreed, but I'm gunna have to work my ass off to afford the CPU, Mobo, and RAM and can't really afford a new card.
you can use the 8600GT in the motherboard with the 3300 that is just a IGP so it won't matter after you plug in a PCI-E card
An 8600 GT is better, but i would save up for a 9600 GT/GSO, both are pretty cheap nowadays
[QUOTE=anikilol;18020798]An 8600 GT is better, but i would save up for a 9600 GT/GSO, both are pretty cheap nowadays[/QUOTE] I have a 9600gt and it was a great card, then I installed a 2nd 9600gt and its even better, I recommended that card if you can get it for a good price (runs gta4 on high textures and everything else on high/very high water with a 3Ghz AMD 6000+)
please tell me a reason you're recommending a 9600 the reason had better be "I'm batshit fucking insane"
What are you using, Windows 95?

insulting us (badly, by the way) is a terrible way to ensure you get reliable help.
