Hey guys,
I was looking to upgrade the card in my G4, and so I searched around here a while back, read all the stuff about the 9800's and how they dont support ADC for G4s and all that good stuff. I recently discovered on ATI's site that they now have a 128 version of the 9000 pro and am seriously considering buying it. I game quite a bit, and I'm in school for graphic design so I use Adobe's CS and a few other programs. Nothing that's terribly GPU intensive in that sense, besides the gaming. Would it be worth the $150 they are charging? I don't mind dropping $150 if its gonna help with better framerates in games (CoD and MoH:AA mostly, ut2k3 also). I'm also planning on going to a gig of RAM to help with some of my Photoshop sluggishness (only on large renderings), so that should help as well.
So basically I'm just curious what you all think. Would it be much of an imporvement at all to go from the 9000 pro 64 to the 128?
Thanks!
