I've looked at the statistics for both and can't really make heads or tales of it all. One of the things that made me think the 500 FX would be better was that it came out a year after the 750 XGL, so it's newer. Hell I don't know. We need more opinions for this dude.

aw ur so nice manOriginally posted by Darkware
If Nem strongly suggests the 750, go with it.
a lot of people tend to forget about the XGL750 when deciding because it seems dated, but it is still a very good card, i believe the FX has dx9 support, but not many games or applications supports dx9 yet, the 750 is much more establishedbut all thats just my opinion of course

am i dumb or do you guys know NOTHING about hardware
FX is way better than the old
ever heard of hardware rendering with the new fx series ?
i just say 20 times faster !!!
the fx 500 gpu is just a slower clocked version of the 1000 and 2000 fx
ok you don´t have dual DVI - big deal
and you don´t have DDR2 - radeon is faster with ddr1 than geforce with ddr2 - the new geforce even switched to ddr1
overclock that baby (probably add a watercooling for the gpu) and you have a fast little baby
--> you would be a fool to buy the old one

well, it works well with the stuff that I make and that says alot because now when I sit down I know I am not limited by the amount of faces I have in a scene because My card can handle it... At least so far:bgreen: Brian

quadro 900 is fine
they are all fine
but what i want to say is that
FX is a new era
HARDWARE RENDERING is ONLY possible with FX
there a a couple of things the new FX series can do and the old can´t
fx500 is fine because it has the lowes clock of all fx chips
so you can overclock it nice and easy
--> fx is ALWAYS WAY better than the old ones
