    x1600 hands down. memory is not an indicator of performance. The answer to your other thread is the 256 go7600. 7600 and x1600 is very equivalent, and they both can use the full 256MB, so the 7600 is better.

    Also, in the future, you could have just created one thread, it keeps away clutter.

    The X1600. The Go7400 is a much weaker card, and can't take advantage of the higher amount of memory. I'd suggest you look up the sticky in the Graphics and Gaming section.

    The X1600 is roughly twice as powerful as the Go7400. Refer to the GPU guide for more information.

    X1600 >(alot) 7400
    X1600 ~= 7600 (only brand loyalty matters here)

    There are no Go 7400s with 256 MB dedicated memory, the maximum is 128 MB. Antything else on top of that is shared memory...

    And yes the X1600 is the better card.

    The Go 7600 in this case, since this card will have 256MB of dedicated memory, which can be used effectively...


    Next time check out the stickies before posting... :rolleyes:
