hi guys
i am ordering a new agp card tommorow however i am still bangin my head on which of these two to buy
1) nvidia geforce 7900gs(http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Graphics+Cards/AGP/nVIDIA+GeForce+7900GS+256MB+AGP+8x+?productId=33056)
2)ATI Radeon X1950 PRO 512MB AGP(http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Graphics+Cards/AGP/ATI+Radeon+X1900+Series/ATI+Radeon+X1950+PRO+512MB+AGP+?productId=32916)
both cards have the same memory clock speed(approx) and also a similar memory bandwidth
however the 7900gs has just a 450mhz core clock and the x1950pro has a 575mhz core clock
my hearts with nvidia and the 7900gs is a lovely card however the x1950pro has 16 more pixel pipelines and a superior core clock speed
compared to my current geforce 7600gt will the 7900gs be a decent "upgrade" or would you go for the x1950
however my other worry is the psu,i have a 300watt in my pc at the moment however i also have a spare ez-cool 550watt psu,will this run the above cards
so my questions are :
1) which card would you go for ?
2)will a ez-cool 550watt psu be enough to run either of these cards?
3) would the 550watt psu be enough to run the 7900gs and also a ageia physX card,
any help will be much appreciated
cheers guys
