Which video card will display the best graphics for WOW?

which video card will display the best graphics for WOW



*Galaxy GeForce 9600 GT Video Card - 1GB DDR3, PCI Express 2.0, SLI Ready, DVI, HDTV, HDMI ($114.99)



*Sparkle GeForce 9600 GT Video Card - 1024MB GDDR2, PCI Express 2.0, DVI, HDTV ($89.99)



*EVGA GeForce 9800 GT Video Card - 1024MB DDR3, PCI Express 2.0, (2) Dual Link DVI, HDTV, VGA Support ($134.99)



all are pci-e on tigerdirect.com|||WoW is largely OpenGL dependent, and offloads a lot of the game functions on the processor, this is smart move because there are a lot more machines with powerful processors and crappy video than vice versa. Some OpenGL is executed on the GPU for WoW but not enough that a high end card will be required. Games like Crysis are hugely DirectX dependant which in most games is heavily dependent on the GPU. In short I wouldn't lose any sleep over the cheaper cards in your case. I however think you can get the 9800GTX+ for the same price as that 9800GT right now and I can tell you right now that extra almost 100Mhz core clock comes in handy.|||WOW barely has any system requirements to run at max settings. I would recommend a cheaper 512mb version of the 9 series. If you want it for other games then go with those models, but for just WOW you could buy a decent card for 50 bucks...



Also, stick with EVGA. They have great customer support and stable cards.|||*EVGA GeForce 9800 GT Video Card - 1024MB DDR3, PCI Express 2.0, (2) Dual Link DVI, HDTV, VGA Support ($134.99)



THIS WILL BE GOOD|||EVGA all the way (9800). Poor kid, don't get addicted to that game. Play something a bit more violent to keep you in touch with reality.|||The 9800|||the third one. :)
