Hey I'm new to the forums.
I have a question. You see i currently have a 9600 Pro for my video card and i want to upgrade. I can play doom3, but only on medium quality, and at 800X600 and frequently choppiness (when theres more than 1 or 2 monsters on the screen. So i was thinking about getting a 9800 pro or an x800 pro. I realize the 9800 pro is about 220 and x800 is 400 so thats not a big issue. Im also planning on buying HalfLife 2 and I want it to run fantastic and not have worry about upgrading for a long time. My computer specs: 2.6ghz 512 mb ram 400 watt sparkler psu So anyway i was wondering what i should get, because my friend was saying that you cant get the full performance of x800 without a intel extreme or somethin like that. So would i still get a lot of good performance out of the x800 or would i have troubles with it? Thanks a lot for any advice.
