OK I know dittly squat about these new fangeld things but I just got a new video card and want to know if I should keep it.

I have a 64mb DDR Radeon 7000
I now have a 128mb DDR Radeon 9600.

Is one better that teh other? Thoughts?

The second one is better than the first.

Bigger Numbers = Better Card

I do not know my dads card, His PC is a $3k gateway job from three years back, but the difference playing SWG on his machine and mine is like night and day.

And I just have a Radeon 8500.

I bet you are loving your new 9600.

I almost hate playing at my dads house, because I am spoiled from the graphics on my machine.

For a new and rather comprehensive gfx card comparison, check out this excellent guide on anandtech:

EDIT: Note - this only compares the top Nvidia and ATi cards..
