I currently have the X850 XT 256mb AGP but i was wondering is it better to upgrade to the X1600 Pro 512mb or not ? I see that the x1600 has only 128bit but the x850 has 256bit also that it has ddr 2 and 850 has ddr 3 (my friends comp)
 
yes the 850xt i have one and 150fps average and pushing on 200 odd fps sometimes on high settings on Half Life 2 is orgasmic to see :P
 
just to make sure my friend said it was an xt but its actually a pro, ati x800pro. so yea, if that makes any difference
 
agreed. if youve got plenty of system memory then the x850xt is a much better choice.

i think the next card i buy will be an all in wonder :D i wanna record tv shows lol
 
GOD NO!!! Do not get that video card!!! my friend bought the x1600 pro 512, and my x800xl 256 (both agp) beat it by about 25 frames per second. check out www.tomshardware.com, click on graphics and displays, and check out their vga charts. they have great benchmarks.

What does system memory have to do with video cards?
But as everyone else said, the x800/x850 is much better then the x1600pro.
