PNY 6800 GT Help

[Duffman]

Alrihgt first off lemme tell u my specs.
Sony Vaio PCV-RS420
2.8ghz HT
Radeon 9800XT
1 gig of PDP PC-3200
Audigy 2ZS

I was wondering if I would see a good boost if I were to change my graphics card to a PNY 6800GT? Also would my PSU be good enough, I cannnot tell what my PSU but it can run the radeon 9800XT card just fine? So overall is it worth me spending on a PNY6800GT to replace my ATI9800XT?

P.S What u guys think would be a good deal if I were to sell my ATI
Radeon 9800XT?


Thanks for the help.

I was also thinking of switch my PC case. I have a sony Vaio PCV-RS420. I was wondering if i can swap my vaio PC case to something like this http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-126-996&depa=1. When I say swap I mean just to switch my computer case. So I take everything out from my vaio case and put it in the new case.

www.tigerdirect.ca or .com sells superb comp cases for rebate and discount prices by friend.

try to stay away from PNY products, if you can get a chaintech or XFX 6800 card, more reliable products...you would get increased preformance if gaming because the 6800 card boasts different utilities such as pixel shader 3.0 where all other older cards have 2.0 for example, its designed to get the best preformance possible from future gaming.

hey u guys think this PS would be good enough for the 6800GT? Kinda low on money a lil might as well kill 2 birds with 1 stone. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-147-001&depa=1

Worth the performance yes. Worth the money, prolly not as the 9800XT are sorely overpriced to start with.

It has nothing to do with the wattage. More to do with the brand and the associated reliability and stability of the rails
