How do I tell which video card is better?

Name: Anonymous 2007-01-28 3:55

Like Nvidia or ATI cards. Like how do I tell from a X800pro to a X1600pro? Is there a way to tell which of those is better?

Troll. No way you are that fucking stupid.

(If you aren't/really are, first, learn to tell which of two numbers is larger, and second, go to gpureview.com and read.)

it haves nothing to do with which number its greater im going to explain to you fucking troll
I will attempt to give a basic guide in the quality of video cards:
For nVidia, in recent generation cards, the most important number is in bold in the following example: GeForce 7800. The the number that is closest to the two 0's indicates whether it is a high, mid, or low end GPU (graphics processing unit) while the first number indicates the generation of video cards (produced by nVidia). Thus, a GeForce 6800 is SIGNIFICANTLY faster and better than a GeForce 7300, even though the number 7300 > 6800. (because '8' is > '3'). In general, if that number is the same, but the generation number is different (i.e. comparing 7800 to 6800) the higher generation card is better. In the case of either "ultra" or "GTX" addition, there are exceptions (i.e. a Geforce 7800 GTX is much better than a GeForce 7900GS. There aren't many comparisons between the different generations of video cards.
For ATi, a similar naming system is used. The PCI-express video cards have model numbers (Radeon) X##0 or X1##0. For example X850 or X1300. Again, the number in the 'hundreds' digit shows the model as high, mid or low end. In the example, an X850 is far superior to an X1300 even though 1300 > 850. Actually the X1300 is somewhat comparable to an X300, but a newer generation.

The first line of >>4 is an acknowledgement of fail on my part. He's still a dumbfuck, since I found the answer to the question with the site I mentioned in the first place in about thirty seconds.
