Solve : 3D Gaming?

Answer»

Hey guys !
i have a long question which i will divide into smaller parts

whats you budget ?
$300

what games are you planning to play ?
Assassins creed 3 , Dishonoured...& basically every game that supports 3D

I have : Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 @ 2.66GHZ
2GB RAM Transcend
Local PSU (I will upgrade this one)
Nvidia 9400GT

My first question
560 ti OR 660 OR 660 ti for 3D gaming

I am not going to game at 1080p resolutions...i dont mind lower AA or No AA at all
720P is enough for me

As per my RESEARCH 560ti delivers Average 3D experience at 1080p resolutions like 50-60 FPS

But the 660 and 660 ti is like "sweet spot" for gamers...its definitely much more poweful than
560 ti & can handle 3D well....but my point is at 720P is 560ti or 660 or 660 ti worth

If 560ti can deliver 50 FPS at 1080p do i even need to look at 660
The thing that is holding me back from 660 is its 192 bit memory interface ..does it make a lot of
difference...some say it would be bad for "Anisotropic Filtering" in future titles

Lastly i am going to buy a LG 3D monitor which already comes with 3D Glasses & tridef software
so should i go for nvidia 3d vision kit worth $150 or should i stick with tridef
I haven't tried out 3D gaming yet to assist with that, but I do know that 2GB RAM on a Windows 7 OS for gaming bottlenecks games performance. I'd double your RAM to 4GB. The good thing is that RAM is cheap these days. My wifes computer a Pentium E5400 was running on 2GB RAM and I doubled her to 4GB RAM and games ran better. She is running 64-bit Win 7. If your running 32-bit Win 7 3GB is Max even if motherboard supports 4 or 8GB. Even 3GB would be way better than just 2GB for gaming.Quote from: DaveLembke on October 08, 2012, 06:57:32 AM

Of course. I really don't know what the big difference between the two is, however, your query was evidently very urgent, or you would not have ignored the relevant advice that, while skirted your actual question was at least as relevant as a direct answer. Since you seem animate to know which of these to get, and acting on the assumption that because of this urgency you had reached a critical stage, I performed the time-tested strategy of choosing a better option, which consists of singing a short rhyme, and moving between the choices for each Word. For example, I started with "Meeney", and POINTED at the 560ti. Then I stated "Miney" and pointed at the 660. I proceeded with this particular rhyme, with each word, I swapped my perspective and pointed at the other option. When the rhyme was done, I found myself looking at the 660, and quickly posted it as my recommendation.

I've found this particular method of choice particularly helpful when faced with a decision to make, and information overload on the two options. When neither choice is clearly better for your particular USE case, then it really doesn't matter which one you choose.Quote from: BC_Programmer on October 10, 2012, 11:20:16 PM

I'm talking about Graphics Cards, which are inanimate Objects. Not people, which are not.
