    it would work.. but not worth it. the 3650 in many cases performs slower than the 2600

    ok... Now I am confused. The 3650 is 55nm, runs at a higher clock and supposedly is considered as faster card. Can anyone else clarify jcovelli's comments

    I second that it's not worth the cost or effort. It's still a 256MB card, and it's still pretty slow. If you could something in the 3870 range, then it'd be worth it, but that probably wouldn't fit.
