choice 2
choice 3
I havent had a look at those GPUs clocks ect, as i havent had much time, but i looked at the prices and they seemed good
PLEASE give me feedback and FAST!!!

What do you typically use your computer for? Do you play games that push that card pretty far?

If you trying to stay up with the computer games coming out I would say upgrade it.

Definitely NOT for a 3650.

Maybe for a 9600GSO...

But why do you need an upgrade?

The 9600 gso will give a decent increase in performance. the 3650 will be pointless.

None of those video cards would give a noticeable increase in performance IMO. Save up a while and get an 8800gt or better yet a Radeon HD 4850
