Quick Question i need some advice on a graphics card im about to buy i had alreay decided on the Asus Radeon 9600XT 128 but now im not too sure i have 3 possible choices i was just wondering if you could please tell me which is best value for money.

Asus ATI Radeon 9600XT/TVD 128MB- My first choice


Hercules 3D Prophet 9600XT 128MB


Hercules 3D Prophet 9800SE All-in-Wonder 128MB- This one is currently on offer.

Personally I'd go for the Hercules and would prefer the 9800SE AIW over the 9600XT, but that's just my 2 cents.

Don't forget that you have a 50:50 chance of being able to convert a Hercules 9800seAIW to a full 9800 Pro.

And if it doesn't, it runs at practically the same speed as the 9600XT anyway. :D

If you stop drinking beer Sheepy we have calculated you could save £205.80 per week and could have a brand new lightning-fast system in just 4 weeks ;) :D
