to do or not to do? by ExO_DsR 2008-01-17 03:05:22
My brother recently ordered one of those huge LCD-TV`s and also bought a barebone to connect this to his TV.
The problem with this barebone is that is had a better CPU and more/better RAM than his current PC,
but that it is a GeForce 7050 chipset.
His aim is to play some WoW on his TV (so he can sit downstairs with his GF).
The 7050 _can_ render the WoW on higher resolutions, but with a seriously low FPS.

I`m now looking into buying him (as a gift) a passivly cooled Radeon HD 2600 XT.
I found a place where they sell it (more or less) cheap, but i have the following problems:

Can anyone acknowledge that this is a single-slot card?
Does anyone know the performance of this card when compared with an (old) radeon X800 card? (still AGP)...
and the 7050?
