[assasin]

Hi Guys ...... which'll be a better gfx crd :
ATI Radeon X600XT or Nvidia 6600LE.
Does the X600XT support SM 3.0????????

Nvidia 6600LE is a good gfx card but it fails badly in FEAR, have to play at 800*600 resolution to get decent frame rates, it depends on which games u wanna play.
Dunno much about ATi one , sorry.

X600XT would be better than 6600LE....

But guys based on wat i've found on the net,the X600XT supports only SM 2.0B but the 6600LE supports Sm 3.0.Based on dis i think dat 6600LE will be a better card.So i dont think dat the X600XT will be able to run games like Splinter Cell Double Agent which req SM 3.0.

^^
Even the 6150 has SM 3.0 suppor...get that instead???? ehh??

And 6600 is different from 6600LE..the 6600LE features clocks @300/400 and has only 4 pixel pipelines while the 6600 has 8 PPs.. :P.....The 6600LE has 128bit mem interface while the 6200 is a 64bit card...and the 6600LE is just above 6200..

^^There might be a fairly good chance of unlocking a 6600LE with a simple bios flash.

@Chaos tried unlocking my 6600LE both using RivaTuner and thru BIOS flash,but didnt succeed,cuz mine is a A4 core.u can unlock only A1 & A2 cores.

@samrulez I understand wat u hav said but dat doesnt mean dat all of a sudden a X600Xt willbe able to run games which specifically req SM3.0.
