Was searching around and found this (see hyperlinks below on 7950 GT vs 1950 pro).
Basically these are the specs for both cards: ------------------------------1950 PRO------------------7950 GT Core clock: ----------------575 Mhz--------------------550 Mhz Memory clock: ------------1.38 Ghz--------------------1.4 Ghz Memory interface: --------256-bit----------------------256-bit Memory transfer rate:----44.16 Gb/s------------------44.8 Gb/s Pixels per clock:-----------36---------------------------24 Looks like both of them are almost similar (naturally, so that Nvidia can compete with ATI!), but the pixels per clock is more for 1950pro. Wished there were reviews on how these cards compare to each other. Hyperlinks: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/131 http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/132 |

If i still stuck wif old AGP system i'll definately giv a major upgrade instead of buying a high-end AGP graphic card
buy a new PCI-E based system n a 8600series will do better, support dx10 also |

Possible??? what a big leap in ur upgrade anyway it's good idea also if u feel comfort wif u AGP system for this cuming 1-2 years then it's fine coz quad-core will becum mainstream roughly 1-2 years after this |

Look at the review below (comparison between 8800 GTS, 8600 GTS and 1950pro) I support you on this one, mate! Although I had to upgrade my AGP to GF7600GT from a GF4, as the latter was really dated.http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2127477,00.asp As for me, I hope to skip DDR2 and straight to DDR3 + quad core!!! Possible??? At this time, I'm not too compelled to upgrade to Vista/DX10 yet, as the platform still needs to mature. Most games still run into problems with Vista, and needs compatibility mode to run. As far as performance is concerned, I think my systems can still hold their own when it comes to gaming -- I mean, can the avergae person tell the difference between 60 FPS and 90 FPS? I doubt it ... Might as well save up and get a 45 nanometer quad core (or more) Penryn proc when it comes out later this year/early next year. It's only a few months away ... |
