Answer #2
nvidia ddr3 = better than ddr2
Answer #3
im not sure where youre looking, but at newegg.com the 3850 is $35, and the 9400gt is $45, and both are gddr2
at the lower price ranges, ati and nvidia gpu’s are about the same power for price.
but if you are looking in the $80 price range, i would recommend a radeon 4670, especially the HIS radeon HD 4670 with the ice q cooler from newegg.com for $79.99 and like 7 dollars shipping, although if you like the look of the others, go ahead and get them

I’ve found that low end ati cards are better at media performance while nvidia cards such as the 9400 is better at gaming than the 4350. All in all, if you want play games both of those cards would suck and a 4650 or 9600 should be the minimum for gaming unless you have a small resolution on your monitor then you may be in luck with a smaller card.
Answer #5

Answer #6
go for the 9600GT if you can
much better than the 9400 or 9500 for gaming
Answer #7

Thank you all for your responses
I just have a low budget, and I don’t want to resort ordering online. I’d rather buy at local stores ( thats just me. )
Anyways, NVIDIA card is looking good.

Answer #9
A question. If GeForce Nvidia GTX 295 is the best Nvidia graphics card. Then which is the second best? GTX 285 SLI?
Answer #10
nope, two GTX285’s in SLI are better then the GTX295 (which are two OC’ed GTX260’s in SLI on one PCB).
if you’re looking at single cards then the GTX285 is the next best.
Answer #11
ohh alright alright. got it now. So a single 295 is better than a single 285 but in SLI 285 beats..
Answer #12
With those two cards it won’t matter, you won’t be able to play games with those cards, check the benchmarks, the both suck to be honest. You’re better of getting a used 8800GT card
Answer #13
Nvidea used to be better but have recently lost it to Ati
