Mist Posted December 4, 2003 Posted December 4, 2003 The 5950 has higher clock speeds (havent seen a comparison to the xt tho) but still has the problem all the fx cards do and that is its architecture was screwed up and image quality is bad.

Will Smith Posted December 4, 2003 Posted December 4, 2003 9800 all the way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eva_Unit_0 Posted December 4, 2003 Posted December 4, 2003 Yeah, on paper the fx is faster, but nvidia screwed up the dx9 architecture so bad that the 9800 stomps all over it. Have you guys seen the results from the dx9 Halflife 2 benchmarks? The fx5900 ultra can't even keep up with a 9600 pro. That's just sad.

AYoKoNA Posted December 4, 2003 Posted December 4, 2003 (edited) All i can say is ... If not this forum or another then on the Internet.

Nuclear Posted December 5, 2003 Posted December 5, 2003 9800XT all the way. Best card I've ever owned, hands down!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
C0DE Posted December 5, 2003 Posted December 5, 2003 i would compare the fx5950 to a 9700 pro at best. thats if your going to be playing any new games. dx8 and dx7 they are pretty much equal (the 9800xt and fx5950) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
