The GeForce 9600 GT 1GB features core clock speeds of 650 MHz on the GPU, and 900 MHz on the 1024 MB of GDDR3 RAM. It features 64 SPUs along with 32 TAUs and 16 ROPs. Compare that to the GeForce GT 430 1GB, which has a core clock frequency of 700 MHz and a GDDR3 memory frequency of 900 MHz. It also makes use of a 128-bit memory bus, and makes use of a 40 nm design. It features 96 SPUs, 16 Texture Address Units, and 4 Raster Operation Units. that means gt 9600 is better
The NVidia is faster.
The 9500gt is better, but still you would not get satisfying performance with it. Go for 9600 or 8800. 8600 is fine but still not that satisfying.
400w
7000 to 8000
No. 9600GT does NOT support TRI-SLI!!! 2 GTX 260 is possible.
If you do a lot of gaming consider getting an nVidia GeForce 9600 video card.
According to the Oblivion website you need to have an ATI X800 series, Nvidia GeForce 6800 series, or higher video card. Here is a list of supported video card chipsets. However you can still get the game to work if your card is not listed here. * ATI X1900 series * ATI X1800 series * ATI X1600 series * ATI X1300 series * ATI X850 series * ATI x800 series * ATI x700 series * ATI x600 series * ATI Radeon 9800 series * ATI Radeon 9700 series * ATI Radeon 9600 series * ATI Radeon 9500 series * NVIDIA GeForce 7800 series * NVIDIA GeForce 6800 series * NVIDIA GeForce 6600 series * NVIDIA GeForce 6200 series * NVIDIA GeForce FX series
Yes, Geforce 210 cards support all the way up to shader 4.1. I have the PNY geforce 210.
Try using an NVIDIA 9600 GT, those are some pretty powerful cards, it would fit perfect into your computer.
If you really wanted you could lower some of your settings in the game.
Minimum: * Supported OS: Microsoft Windows XP / Vista / Vista64 * Processor: Pentium 4 3.0GHz * Memory: 1 GB * Graphics: 128 MB, Shader model 2.0, ATI 9600, NVidia 6600 or better * Hard Drive: At least 7.5 GB of free space * Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound cardRecommended: * Supported OS: Microsoft Windows XP / Vista / Vista64 * Processor: Intel core 2 duo 2.4GHz * Memory: 1 GB * Graphics: Shader model 3.0, NVidia 7600, ATI X1600 or better
I run a 9600 GT with Solidworks 2008, 2009, and 2010beta. It is a little slow with very complex assemblies, however, it still works very proficiently. It is also a little slow when utilizing photoworks; again, it still gets the job done.
