Replacing this for a friend who cant play newer games anymore told me he had 60 max and the 9500GT seemed to be the best bet here, as the only 4650's i saw where DDR2 or 64bit. I picked the Gigabyte one with a Zalman Cooler and DDR3 ram that gigabyte advertises does 2200mhz and the core already is at 650, will we see a good improvement over his x800 for games it can currently play. He bought it cause he bought Chaos Theroy and it wouldnt work.

Well, I'm pretty sure if memory server that Chaos Theory will run on an x800 series Radeon ... I think you just have to disable 3.0 shaders, which is a menu option I think ... but anyways, yeah, the 9500GT should be faster. Personally I'd have gotten one of the 42.99 (after MIR) Asus 9600GSO's, as it's a much better gaming card, but ...

And if you were talking 60fps max in every game ... that's a sure sign of vsync being turned on
