Upgrade from 4550 to 4650

[robinbredin]

Hi is it worth upgrading from the low profile 4550 to the low profile 4650, I use the 4550 now, and I was wondering if it's worth it. Thanks

Probably not, I'd go for a 5750

He can't if he needs something low profile...I wouldn't say it's worth the upgrade though, unless you can sell your 4550 for a reasonable price.

There is not a big selection of low profile cards around.

AMD would probably release 55** - 56** series cards soon, which should be low profile. I would wait for them as there is not much performance boost from teh 4550 to the 4650. But then again, it depends on what you need it for.

yeah I agree wait for newer ones

Would be nice if they did, but i use the present card for gaming. With having an slimline system, there's not a lot of choice out there.

Low profile 9600GT? The Galaxy one seems to be the cheapest available.

The 5500's ,5600's aren't due till Q1.
