Hi I just got this new Acer computer, and it comes with the Integrated Graphic ATI Radeon X1250 video card. On my old comp, I have an ATI Radeon 9600SE 128MB video card also. Im just wondering which card would be better for gaming?
On this new comp, RAM is 2GB and I play this particular game it gives me some lags. On old comp, RAM is only 756MB with the 9600SE, it gives me no lags. So Im thinking of swarping the 9600SE over to this new comp. What you think? |

i would use the card just so it releases what system your intergrated graphics is using.
tbh though i would upgrade to at least a 7600GT,i heard the X850 series from ATI are good cards for their age. Kornowski has one for sale here i think.

I would say the 9600 would be better, has its own memory so it will free up some system memory. Been awhile but it seems like the 9600 was a pretty good card for its time. Think the SE only has 64bit memory thou. I still have a old 9800Pro in a Socket A, booted it up the other day to check something and I was surprised how well it ran.
