Ati 2600XT vs 1900XT ?

[tribe3]

tried search but found nothing

I read here that the 2600 works in old MPs but the 1900 has 512MB... which one is better?

Sorry for my ignorance. Just curious.

The 1900XT dominates the 2600 option in every possible way (sometimes double the framerate at the same rez and settings).

Unless you want to play games that require DX10 in Vista, there is no reason whatsoever to go with the 2600. Even then, at this time it's kinda comical; the games that require the new shader model run like ass with the 2600.
