I bought the 9400 GT 1GB. It's pretty good. I didn't overclock it yet. But all I can use it right now is to play Halo 2 on max, and run the crysis demo with everything on medium. Which isn't half bad.

I;m happy with all the suggestions. I currently have an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 (this is my laptop) and I was asking about those 3 due to the fact that I am looking into custom building a gaming only pc and those 3 cards are what the company offered.

Ok so you can either get the ATI HD 4870 or 4850 (i have 4850) and its pretty much an equivalent to 9800. My friend has a 9800gt and i have a 4850 and i got better framerates then him in Crysis. I'd go get the 9800 out of the three, or consider getting a 4870.

ya if u can afford a 4870(and have a large enough psu to run everything) then get it, but my next system will have dual 4890's as the 4870x2 got pulled cause seems no one bought them....either way i was a nivida freak until ati made the 48xx series....ati finally got the leg up let see what happens next :P
