For my 2800+ Barton setup, 3DMark2006 shows a big improvement when you move from a 9600XT to a 7600GS in 3D gaming. Without knowing what CPU/RAM you have, it's hard to predict what frame rate you'll get..but, probably in the 30-45 range. To compare, a 4600+ based system with 7900GS x2 in SLI gets 60...

$400 is tough for a gaming build. The suggestions by jackylman get you a mobo that you can grow with over time (AM2 and PCI-E). I have an Athlon 2800, AGP based 7600GS, and 1GB of dual channel DRAM, and while it'll play the games well at moderate graphics quality, it won't play them at decent frames...

I'm at that same point - spend a lot of $'s for a new mobo/ram/pci-e vid card or just do another incremental upgrade to my Barton 2800+. Futuremark's search and compare tool is a way for you to type in what you've got and then play what-if games with the processor and graphics card. At first glance,...

I've been having problems with my 6600GT, so I installed a 7600GS on my AGP based mobo with 2800+ Barton. 3D2006 score goes from 1500-1800 to 2100+. 10-20% improvement - about what was seen on Anandtech. Not a monster performer, but good enough until I can afford to build a new system. This new Giga...

Some comments from another WoW player. With a Barton 2800, 1GB of dual channel memory and a 6600GT vid card, alt-tabbing can also be slow for me. - WoW has a memory leak when you are alt-tabbed out of the game. It's better than it was, BUT, if you alt-tab a bunch of times, the game becomes an idle m...
