Radeon 3650 gives more performance then 8600GT but 10% less performance then 8600GTS. If temprature allows me then I will sure over clock Radeon 3650 upto the level to beat 8600GTS

^ for just 700-800 rupees u can add a gemini gfx cooler-the fan one that takes a pci slot without any gfx card homework.it will keep temperatures in control.that would help achieve good oc'ing

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

hmm...I will think about over clocking later. Since I have a PCIe X1 slot next to graphics card, which is useless I can very well spare it for a dual slot cooler....

Umm...are PCIe X1 based TV Tuners available.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

the 3650 is just below 8600 when both are at stock. .. i think when both are OCed 8600 will offer better gaming performance as 8600 is a good OCer.


3650 wont come close to stock 8800 even if water cooled and extremely OCed

Compared to 8600GT & 9600GT, yeah 3650 is better in features. If I wanted performance I would have opted for Geforce 9600GT instead but I wanted a VFM & more on features card so ATI Radeon 3650 is my choice.

My work now includes more of Microsoft Blend, Photoshop & Illustrator, then 3ds Max, so 10% less OpenGL performance is acceptable.

Besides, I need a silent PC which is low on power & heat. Radeon 3650 can decrese it's clock speed on the fly now even in desktop graphics card, which geforce can't. While working in Vista in 2D even a clock speed of 400 MHz is enough.

I have no idea about ATI drivers though since the last 3 years

3650 was MADE TO compete with 8600GT, and easily excels it.
sunny was confused with 3650 and 3850.

From what I have seen in the reviews online, Radeon HD 3650 defeates 8600GT by a big maring, but it is defeted by GeForce 8600GTS at stock speeds.

However, like I have mentioned above that the performance similar to 8600GT is all I need, means performance wise Radeon HD 3650 is good enough for me, but feature wise it is better then GeForce 8600GT

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Congrats GX for the purchase.......finally tell me if there is any compatiblity related issue with MAX or not (in opengl mode)? And if mental ray is working or not?

I checked in Radeon 2600 pro, in DirectX 9 Mode, it was working fine.

In DirectX 10 Mode, viewport was slow & there was texture curroption.

I did not check in OpenGL mode.

All the mental ray shaders were working fine. Or maybe cos the shaders I made myself were made in DirectX mode.
