Hi!

Got an Geforce Fx5600, 256 Ram 8xAGP.
Have been offered a Geforce 6600, 256mb DDR, 8xAGP ("golden sample" i
think!?)

Any improvements? Will I be able to play BF2??

Thanx
FCW

I just upgraded from an FX5700 to a 6600GT and it's a tremendous
difference! There's about a 200mhz difference between the 6600 and
6600GT's core clocks though, so see if you can get a 6600GT 128MB for
roughly the same money. So far every DX9 game I've played runs smooth
as butta', including BF2.
