Hi guys,
I've currently got an oolllddd Geforce 8800GTS video card and I'm thinking it's time to upgrade it to something a little more modern. What I'm struggling to determine is exactly how my old one compared to the new candidates, speed-wise. All the benchmarks that I can find for the 8800GTS seem to not be comparable to current benchmarks...
I'm looking at the AMD Radeon 7850 card as the likely replacement. Can anyone give me an idea of what sort of improvement I can expect? Is 500% faster reasonable? I'm looking to run 2560x1600 res and I'd like things to be fairly smooth.
