New graphics card, is it worth it?

Hi folks,

 

I have a Dell Inspiron 530 2.33 Ghz Core 2 Duo with 256mb Nvidia 8600 GT.

 

I have seen another graphics card on ebay (link below) for a decent price and spec and was wondering if you think it is worth getting or wait until Rockstar releases another patch.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Nope. The 9500GT is just a rebranded 8600GT and even performs worse in some areas.

 

What's your budget? Give us a budget so we can get you the best.

Nope, 9500GT is only a GeForce 9 version of 8600GT. It's a budget card.

I would probably stretch th budget to about £100 on a new graphics card. If there are any with dual DVI ports would be better as I have 2 monitors connected up.

 

Any recommendations appreciated Warlord.

For 100 Pounds you could get an awesome card man.

 

Go for this card. Its slightly above your budget, but I think its worth every cent smile.gif.
