GT220 GPUZ, also question

u2konline · 11-07-2009, 06:59 AM

I have decided to buy this card:
http://www.galaxytech.com/en/productview.aspx?id=177

To replace my Galaxy 9500GT1GB. I am giving my single core to a friend, i guess she wouldn't mind the 9500gt with it. So i am going to buy the Galaxy gt220 most likely next weekend, however, does anyone have the correct gpu-z stats listed yet?
I gather the GT220 is slightly faster then the 9500gt right?

The GDDR3 GT220 (e-tailers only) ran on-par with the 9500 GT in W1zzard's review. Seems to be bottlenecked by its RAM (especially the DDR2 version). It's honestly a huge waste of money compared to say a 9600/9800 GT. For Bestbuy's rip-off price you can buy a 9800 GT ECO (doesn't need a PCIe power connector) and get 2-4x the performance + have $30 to boot.

Well really my only question was to see the correct gpu-z stats using a GT220 DDR2 card. As for buying a 9800GT ECO card, um i am buying a 9800gt , but for my Quad core which i am buying later this year. The GT220 is for my dual core i am buying next weekend.

I don't think there are any correct info for the card lol
gpuz is reporting 25.28 GB with 625 core and 400 memory, which is good tho.

It should have only 16GB/s of bandwidth with the DDR2 version. GPU-Z is probably reporting it as having GDDR3. It reports my 210 as having DDR3 when it has DDR2.

Just a update, i am going to buy this GT220 version

Its only 65 cash up front. Going to buy it, at the end of the month.

yes, get the GDDR3 version.

performance is between 9500GT and 9600GT I'd say.

It is the same card!!! Don`t worth the effort IMO.
This would be upgrade
