ah ok... abi nako gtx460 768mb = HD5830 & gtx460 1gb = HD5850? dili diay?

[P0w3rM0v3]

as far as i can tell sa mga reviews, a step below ang gtx460 sa 5850. dili ana ka dako ang difference though. ang direct competitor sa gtx460 kay ang 5830. Ang 460 is much better than the 5830 as far as i can tell.. hopefully more reviews should clarify where it stands.

[acronis]

I was also reading reviews and there were instances the gtx460 even beat the 5850... pero you are right better gyapon ang 5850 at higher resolutions. Btw, I have another question... is PhysX a big deal in gaming?

dont get me wrong..but for a small price difference..

the i3 530 is a better buy than the 555BE

[acronis]

Well if I wait for a couple of months maybe I can save for that i5 750 + hd5850 combo ^^

@acronis: regarding physX, no it's not necessary for gaming lol. its a feature in some games optimized for nvdia (very few). In a thread i mentioned earlier, game developers really don't like to make games with PhysX on them apparently because of the programming involved to implementing it.
More and more game dev's are using the HAVOK engine instead since it seems to be easier to implement.

@dmelsie: okay rasad ni pero use 1600x1050 resolution lang.... like i said, for gaming, give a bit more priority to graphics compared to cpu.

[acronis]

Lets all boycott PhysX para everybody happy! hehehe...

Hayss.. mag DOTA lang sa ko for the mean time until I get my gaming rig. =(
