So, how do I check if my PC is compatible with Nvidia Geforce 9800
I am planning on buying it.

By posting your PC specs.

first off, check the psu ratings. Then check see if you have a pcie slot on the mobo.

You already run a 9400, 9800 shouldn't use much more power, it might though.

get an ati 4850, its way better.

pci or pci-e?
because there is a pci version of 9400gt 1gb
also 9800gt is same shit as the 4850, just buy which one is on sale.
gaem designer don't give a shit about graphic anymore, a 9800gt would serve nice, so does the 4850, unless you play Crysis on a 2650x 1600 monitor which i doubt.
the 9800 and the 4850 does require pci-e power connector, if your computer was a pre-build, might want to check that out.

The 4850 is (usually) a little better I think, either works.
If you want, I'll sell you mine on the cheap (works fine, just bad ATI Linux drivers).

It's 9500 1GB
No really, is there difference between 9800 and 4850?

Karakawe · Posted: Tue Feb 02, 2010 6:38 am Post subject:

About 75 USD including shipping? I don't know, it's a 512MB MSI card with a good heatsink & fan. It works fine (overclocks alright, though I never kept it up), decent temps, etc. If anyone's interested PM me, I can get some screenshots up.
EDIT: The 9800GTX+ comes in a little bit better than the 4850 (few FPS at lower resolutions on Crysis), but the 9800GT is a little behind.

I own the 9800gt myself, and I am very happy with it. A few games I play have some crashing problems with ATI cards, but with updated drivers you should be fine. It's really whatever is cheaper.

Fuck drivers.

I mean, you already have a 9500, why get a 9800? If I were you, I would bump it up a bit and get a 4890. Because otherwise, you probably wouldn't even notice the difference that much.
