Hi , I'm curentley running a ATI X800XT & need a new card because this 1 is dieing & was considering a HD2600XT for my power supply only being 430W . Is this a waste of money to upgrade for $120 USD or not worth the gain ? TY for any help.

the recommended PSU for that card is 400w, it might be a little close,
calc it and see; http://www.extreme.outervision.com/p...ulatorlite.jsp
anything close to the 2600's price range is the 8500/8600 even the 1950 pro's are better so the 2600's should be an improvement over both.

Thanks M8's for the input but I'm leaning towards the HD2600 XT for 2 factors , its low power requirments & I can get it in AGP. I agree on Nvidia being better & would love the X1950 XT but don't want to shell out anymore cash then possible because I will be building a new machine next year. Scinto , I have a Antec NEO-HE 430 & did the calculater & it said I would only be using 216 W with the HD2600 XT 512. Overall will I get better FPS's with this card ????? TY again !
current specs (cough!!!) P4 2.8 ,2gig DDR , X800XT-PE ,& SB X-FI
