The pen is mightier than the sword if the sword is very short, and the pen is very sharp.

XFX GeForce 9600 GT Video Card

 

Anyone using this card in game? I was thinking of changing over. I'm geting too many BSoDs on the 8600GT I have.

 

Any info is appreciated.

Make sure your motherboard has a pci express 2.0 slot. It will work on a regular pci express too but you wont get the most out of it. Dont get the base 9600GT spend some extra and get a gtx you will love it in the end.

I wouldnt change anything till you play the final client,changing now you are doing it blind and may end up spending money you dont have too,just my opinion..

 

edit-if you do decide to upgrade then you would be better with a 8800 series card than the 9600,again just my opinion,again though I would wait.

Agreed. I upgraded for Vanguard, and boy did I end up regretting it. Hang onto your money a little bit longer. Anyway, although I'm not familiar with your card, I suspect the problem isn't with the card itself.

Well this close it makes sense to wait, I suppose. Not that a couple of BSoDs are going to kill the game even if they do continue. But at least I'll have info ahead of time, eh?

I only care about MY Characters graphics, maybe a bit for the Scenery and some close characters. but all in all... I rather have my character looking Max than anything else. so I just set everything down except Character Graphics.

it Usualy helps performance alot.
