7900 GS or X1950 Pro ??

[Tosk]

should my m8 get the..

BFG GeForce 7900 GS OC 256MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail

or the

IS ATI Radeon X1950 Pro ICEQ 3 TURBO SILENT Heatpipe 256MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail

which 1 do you thinks best?
he only as £130.00 to spend.

The pro is the faster card afaik, but the ocuk gs is cheaper, so its up to him really!

For comparison my ocuk gs gets a fraction under 10k in 3d05 (9859)

Thats at rather high clocks but all the ocuk ones clock well

i think a pro can push 12k

x1950pro is the better card, its faster, has better IQ, can do AA+HDR, and is an absolute steal at the price it is.

Easily, running tons of junk with my rig on an Akasa 460W power supply.

A mate of mine is running the same rig as me on an Antec 380W power supply.

Akasa Ultra Quiet 500W Paxpower
