While the 1GB memory is nice, I believe these are slower than the 512's.

Not to be a d*** here but while it may be slower I would almost bet on it that 99% of the people playing AH or any other game really don't care if it is slower or can really tell a difference. Besides for that price I am picking one up today to go into my son's rebuild that I am doing for Christmas.

From a review:

"The GeForce 9600 GT that we tested the 9500 GT against offers much more performance as my testing showed a 62% performance gain in Call of Duty 4 and a 102% boost in Bioshock at 1280x1024. For those that don't want to break the bank and game at lower resolutions the GeForce 9500 GT is a sure to play the current game titles, but you'll have to keep an eye on the settings as to reach smooth frame rates you'll have to tone it back to medium in some games."

Then again the 9600 GT is almost $100.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

I think the point that BaldEagl was making is that for lowend monitor users (low resolution) there isnt a benefit to be seen at all using anything faster. A 4850 doesnt even start to get its stride until it is set for a higher resolution than 1280x1024 and if thats the native resolution for your monitor you wont gain a thing even if its just $5 more.

$40 after rebate was a good find.

I get your point. You are pathetic and a waste of genetic material and I am tired of your constant and incessant jabs. Stuff your head up your avatar and pipe down moron. You are poorly informed on technology and yet respond to posts as if you are an expert. You need to learn you are not important to me and all of us would be better off without your posting AT ALL! This is not a popularity contest but if it were you FAIL!
