I would say 2600xt, but not sure. How much are you wanting to spend?

smartali89 · Apr 13, 2008

Rs. 9000 ($150~)

DanishDevil · Apr 13, 2008

I don't know about in Pakistan, but online here you can grab a 3850 for under $150. You might be better off having one of your TPU buddies buying it for you and shipping it to you.

HIS ICEQIII HD3850 for $154

.

Well, add like $10~$20 if you consider shipping.

Non ICE Q HD3850 for $120~

Either options are CERTAINLY better than those two HD2600/HD3650s you mentioned.

HAH! I beat you tk! You did get the linky though...

Therefore I = win

Honestly, thats all we need to say. There wont be any other options, those HD3850s sure are WAY under RRP... I was going to say 8600GTS until I saw them :laugh:

DanishDevil · Apr 13, 2008

Yeah. The single slot HIS version is $110 after $10 MIR. Honestly, that almost makes buying a 3870 unjustifiable.

I wish it was that cheap here in Australia... god HD3870/HD3850s are like WAY overpriced here.

Things in Pakistan are over priced too..

How much it will cost for shipping?

JrRacinFan · Apr 13, 2008

In all honesty, 2600XT I have read pulls a tiny margin above the 3650 in older games, but its a negligible difference. But either way both are on par BUT the 3650 does not consume as much power.

Fitseries3 · Apr 13, 2008

most of the benches i've read... both have oerformed almost the same. it's a coin toss i guess.

smartali89 · Apr 15, 2008

So 2600XT is better ?

ShadowFold · Apr 15, 2008

Save up for a 3850..
