Nice upgrade, you got new pants on standby, 7600 GT is an absolute belter of a card for the price, its faster than the 6800 Ultra.

It is only by 1fps to be fair in most cases and a 6800ultra (PCI-E) can be had for £75 now but then a 7600GT brand new can be had for £95 but its still good considering its brand new.

? its a lot faster than the 6800Ultra

anyway, Gandalf501 get and post some benchmarks. or post in the 7600GT owners thread. we could do with some comparisons between AGP and PCI-E

It's not a lot faster - check the VGA charts.

Well, price/performance wise it's the best AGP upgrade there is right no...

1FPS, are you kidding, stock has decent increase in performance to the ultra, overclocked it will stamp on the ultra and slap it in the face, its a LOT faster overclocked, 7000+ 3D marks in '05, what does ultra score, 5000 something isn't it?

Check toms hardware VGA charts.
Plus also you cant compare overclocked vs not overclocked.

7600GT (3103)
6800Ultra (2928)

Dont worry about it being compared to a 6800GT in both I couldnt work out how to get around that.

And we all know that the difference between those two in real world is only a few FPS.

Edit: Just noticed that the 7600GT is an overclocked version because its "Extreme" so it is comparing overclocked vs non-overclocked.
