how does that compare to a NVIDIA GeForce 7300GS ??
its a little better but not all that much.as has been stated in other threads with vid cards you can go by the 2nd number
7300gs=low end
9600gso=mid range
9800gt=high end
i had the nvidia 8300gs and my fps were between 12-40 depending on what i was doing,thats with detailed terrain checked only
so i got the 9800gt and have all detail in advanced settings checked and maxed and get 59-65 fps.
im sure the 9600gso is a good card and for that money a good buy,but its still not going to play ah2 all that well.
i would suggest if your going to spend the money for a new card get one thats gonna do the job and not disapoint your expectations.
newegg has a ton of deals if you just look through their site for a while and im sure you colud find a lot better card for not much more money.
most of them do have rebates but imo its just worth it to spend $20-$40 more to get the high end card.
