    Both of these cards are 512 MB cards. Which card is more ideal for gaming?

    9800M GT = 8800M GTX
    FX3600m = 8800M GTS core, which is about 10-15% slower than the 8800M GTX.

    In addition to that, the 9800M GT's drivers are more suitable to games, but you could load the same drivers on the FX3600M, but not vice versa. The FX's drivers are more suitable for workstation use.
