m3lisk Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 :excl: i know this isn't an oblivion problem, but it is a technical problem. This morning i was buying a vid card on newegg, to hold me over til directx10 comes out, and it was between ati x1300 pro and nvidia 7300gt. I went on a few sites for oblivion performance reviews, and one had benchmarks of the x1300 pro owning the 7300gt, by far in oblivion. so i said cool and bought the x1300 pro of newegg. i was just doing some research, and all other sites say 7300gt owns the x1300 pro :ohmy: . and now i feel like killing myself... :( (figuritively :closedeyes: ). Anyone with an ati x1300 pro want to tell me how it performs for real :huh: , not how someone paid to say it performs well. Same goes for nvidia 7300gt. Please reply to keep me from aquiring chronic depression! oh, and i am now a slayer with this post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberiu911 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Im not exactly a professional in hardware specifications, but il try to help the way I can. Here is a link to a site wich compares Ati Radeon x1300, x1600 Pro and 7300gt. I dont understand half of it, but maybe you will. Theres several pages. Hope it helps. http://www.techspot.com/review/7-nvidia_ge...0pro/page2.html This is the sad conclusion: (same site) http://www.techspot.com/review/7-nvidia_ge...0pro/page6.html It says that the x1300 is no match for the 7300gt. Sorry. On another site I read that the x1300 is ment to compete agains geforce 6200. I dont know where you live, but doesnt the shop you bought it from has a return policy? Unless you bought it from ebay then your out of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m3lisk Posted August 5, 2006 Author Share Posted August 5, 2006 thanks tiberiu. yeah, i bought it off newegg, so i think i have a 30 day return policy. As soon as i get it i will send back for a 7300gt. once again, thanks. that was one of the few reviews that cut through all the bull5h17. i have a 6100 right now, so either way it's an upgrade, but i will get refund immediatly, and get the 7300. i jumped the gun and made a big mistake apparently... p.s.- Vincent from FF7 rocks, and thats my name too... mwahahahaha...
