So im looking to upgrade my 8600GT 512mb ddrII. The main game i will be playing is halo so im looking for something that will get great fps at a resolution of 1280x1024

my os is windows xp and i dont plan to upgrade to vista.. because it sucks

current system is

Abit nfm-2s
Amd x2 3600 oc'd @ 2.3ghz
1.5gb ddrII ram oc'd
8600GT oc'd 640/1000
380W psu

I will be upgrading the rest of my system too, after i get the card..
The main graphics cards im looking to buy are: 8800gt / 3850 / 4850 / 9600GT / 9800GT

which do you think is the best one to get and why. theyre all very similiar prices in uk so that wont matter.

9800GT isnt as good as people make out though. its only a little better then the 8800gt which is now a "old" card

vista only sucks for people that don't have systems good enough to run it.

things like compatibility issues just dont depend on your system.. at all. as long as ur system has 1gbram and 2ghz+ processing power it would be fine to run vista.

God you're stupid. You can't even decide what graphics card to buy alone, and you're going to say how vista runs and what it needs to run? I think you should start taking notes, or get on google asap.

rofl!

i just dont have the time to sit and read reviews for differant parts, i know how vista runs because i build systems daily and i often install vista on some and xp on others, i have built from low end systems to high end systems and used vista on a large amount of them, Vista isnt to my liking. Stupid? rofl.

The main reason for this thread was to see what graphics card would be best for me to get for HALO something that google doesnt index much information about because halo is OLD. I think you should re-read the thread. Your the stupid one.

He said the only game he's going to be playing is halo, don't waste money on a good gfx if you're only going to be playing an old game like halo. 8600 should run it fine, if you plan on playing other games, then I would suggest getting a better card.
