Alright, now my systems done.
Now my friend since got his system fried, so he's getting a complete new setup. So he's wondering, which card is best? The nVidia GeForce 7600GT 256MB PCI-E, or the ATI Sapphire Radeon X1800GTO 256MB PCI-E?
I've also helped him research benchmarks and reviews - and they both beat each other in various benchmarks. He's mostly interested in most of the games I play, plus a few more;
F.E.A.R
Battlefield 2
Quake 4
Counter-Strike: Source
Day of Defeat: Source
Guild Wars
Call of Duty 2
World of Warcraft
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Now he knows either card will smoke Guild Wars, Q4 and BF2. But he's wondering about the rest.
He wants the BEST IMAGE QUALITY with awesome FPS too, I've noticed ATI have the best image quality, but in games like Q4, the 7600GT has something like 20+FPS on the X1800GTO. But the X1800GTO also beats the 7600GT in other reviews.
Currently, he's leaning towards the X1800GTO because of it's great image quality and ability of high AA/AF without massive loss of performance, unlike the competing 7600GT, which nVidia totally lack the ability to have.
He was also planning, that he would unlock them to whatever possible, and then Overclock them. Therefore if he got the X1800GTO, he'd want to Unlock it to an X1800XL, or higher if he could. Then OC it a bit more, maybe with a higher voltage.
Many thanks!
Cheers,
Josh
