can you guys compare 2 video cards against each other for me?
i did some minor googling and couldn't decipher which was better of the 2.
heres the situation.....
my buddy bought a pretty bangin' gateway desktop mostly just to play WoW. It came stocked with an
Nvidia 6100gpu
However he got advice from a guy at circuit city. the guy picked out an...
ati x1300 512mb
the guy installed it and some extra ram for him. i came by my friends house and the first thing i noticed was that the circuit city guy failed to put the stock nvidia card in the ati's box which is standard procedure. after all its not a bad video card.
then like i said i did a little research and without understanding a lot of the tech jargon i noticed that the nvidia card was coming up at about 100 bucks more expensive on average!
so im worried that my buddy got suckered into not only giving up a nice video card from his comp to this guy, but paying him to switch it out! It goes without saying that my friend is gonna make sure he gets back his old card or gets compesated for it, but i just wanted to see if there were any redeeming qualities to him actually having it done. thanks for the advice in advance.
