Which would be a better graphics card fo 60$? the Nvidia 9500 gt or the ATI HD 3650 sapphire? I think they should be about equal but which one handles games better. (Im not expecting crysis or anything so dont bother telling me) just some light gaming..
thanks

I'd go with the 3650.

I'd stick with the 3650, unless you can find a 3850 or 8800GS for 60 dollars, which I'm doubtful of.

Yeah, you can get a 3850 or 9600GT for not much more.

The 4670 looks decent as well if you can get it. Certainly much faster than a 3650. About equal to a 3850 it seems.

Yeah that's about what I expected. I'm a little out of touch with the midrange cards on offer now, there's so many of them, HD3600s and HD3400s, 9500s, 9800GTs, and so on and so forth. So far all I've gathered is that a 9800GT is about 10-15% slower than an HD4850, which would make it approximately equal to an 8800GTS.

It IS an 8800GTS. Just with slightly lower clocks.
