Oh crap, I thought the 9250 was better than both. I guess I'm wrong...
But I'm still convinced it is better in some way, as a friend had an 9200, and he couldn't play some of the games I could with my 9250 (BF2, CSS...), and he has a 2.4 Ghz Processor...

Hmm. If i ran a game in Direct 8 mode, will it run better than if i ran it in Direct X 7 mode?

I have 768mb of ram. 2.67ghz.

I wouldn't know how to oc my cpu.

Plus i would like to stay away from doing anything else to my system, as i keep stuffing everything up.

But yeah, i've been running my css in DX 7 mode thinking it will run better, Or does it run better in DX8?

Just OC everything mildly.
For the CPU, get into the BIOS, and raise the FSB slowly... What's your CPU's clock speed anyway ?
EDIT : sorry i didn't read it was 2,67Ghz

Hmm, i'll try do that.
I remember hearing somewhere that i have to change a setting from 64. to like..100 and something (In the BIOS) to have a good effect on gaming performance...can't remember what it was though.

So have you done it ? If you have, it's time to OC your gfx !
If you use the Ati, get Atitool
If you use the Nvidia, you should get Rivatuner... Nvidia people correct me if I'm wrong...

I use ATI TOOL to scan and detect artifacts and for heating up the core.

For actual adjustments of the clocks I use Rivatuner

Sell each for...~$20.

~$60.

9600Pro/XT.

If that counts as "buying" a new card, just benchmark 'em.
