is a nvidia geforce 6150se better than an amd radeon 9500 pro?

Question

I recently bought a new computer and it has.....Vista..... I try to play my games but they are kind of choppy and the same games on my 3-4 year old computer play just fine. I just wanted to know if it was vista or is it that my old graphics card is better than my new one. The old card is the AMD Radeon 9500PRO and the card on my new computer is a Nvidia GEforce 6150SE. If my old card is better than I will hope it works and vista and just swap the cards.

The specs of my new computer are
AMD Athlon 64 x2 Duel Core Processor 4400+ two CPU's about 2.35Ghz
Memory-1790MB Ram

i didnt mean to write amd radeon its an ATI radeon

Answer 1

Radeon 9500 Pro is a pretty decent AGP card. It is actually a downclocked and BIOS modified 9700 Pro. It has 8 pixel pipelines and 128Mb videoram on board. It can do 11,000+ in 3DMark 01(1024x768).

Geforce 6150SE is integrated in your motherboard. It just shares memory from system RAM. It has only 2 pixel pipelines. No way it could beat 9500 Pro.

Your new motherboard w/ 6150SE may not have an AGP slot for the 9500 Pro. Your graphics upgrade path may have to be towards a PCIe card. You can just sell your 9500 Pro at e-Bay.
