HD 2600xt 256 or Go 8600GT 512

[kayhesse]

Hello,

What card is better in combination with

- Core 2 Duo T7500 2x2.2 Ghz
- 2048MB DDR2 Speicher
- 250GB SATA Festplatte

HD 2600xt 256 (4000 3dmark06)
Go 8600GT 512 (3500 3dmark06)

I game alot and i see that sometimes the one is better then the other

But whats the advantage of the 512mb from the 8600GT?
And is the HD 2600XT better in games as you see in the scores of 3dmark06?

I think the HD 2600XT is much better for games (correct me if im wrong)

Who can help me?

hard to tell, it will depend on the game and on the resolution (and settings). still overall the 2600 xt should be faster in medium details and resolutions.

And wich will be more stable in fps with high res?

That depends on the game, the drivers, and the settings. But generally the 2600 xt should have more raw power.
