Geforce 4 MX 440 And Geforce 3 Ti 500 (Performance For Price)

Post by ze2o »

Geforce 4 MX 440-T Vs. Geforce 3 Ti 500

Is the Geforce 4 MX 440 worth getting? I hear it performs just as well as a Geforce 2 Ti, or should I stick to getting a Geforce 3 Ti 500?

I think if you can get a GF4 Ti4200 128MB for around the same price as the R8500 128MB, then get the GF4 instead, cuz it is a newer chip, and easily overclocks to 300Mhz core. The ram is a bit slower tho, but if you volt mod it, it'll OC like crazy too. In most benches, the Ti4200 still beats the R8500
