Got a hand me down from my brother. He said the one should be better then the two 9600 GSO? Is this true? Well I'm going to find out. I'm redoing my rig and saying by by Vista......Hello 7 :) So I'll be down a bit and PM you for the chages. BC2 here I come....I hope!
 
Yeah, it's true. I had that card it was pretty kick ass. It ran faster than the regular 4870 and faster than the 9800GTX, if I remember correctly. Also, it runs cool and quiet. Amazon used that card for BFBC2 and said he got decent fps on it too, something you would not get with the 9600.

Edit: I was wrong, I had the 4870 Toxic. The Vapor-x is still better than the 9600 though and you should be fine as long as your CPU can push the game.
 
Yea I had it after sixer and it was sweet. But have since went to the HD5850 :0 Its awesome too.
 
That is a killer card, you should like it and it will run BC2 just fine.
 
That's a good card, should handle 90% of games with ease.
 
Thanks guy for the info! If anyone has one laying around let me know I'll buy it off you. Ones nice but two is always better :)
