Okay, my friend's laptop has an ATI Mobility Radeon 4200. We both play an MMO called EVE Online. His laptop runs it at highish settings (shadows off), but altogether pretty crapily.
I'm looking to buy a new computer. One of them has an ATI Radeon HD 4870 and one has an nVidia 460 GTX. Which of the two are superior (the price range is similar, both used, custom made PCs)? And by how much?
And how much better is it than the 4200?
And while I'm at it, how would an 8800gt superclocked EVGA graphics card stand?
Any and all information is much appreciated

you will not get any style of sturdy answer in this. some human beings like Honda, others Toyota, others Ford, others GM. splendor is interior the attention of the beholder. The "that's greater powerful, nVidia or ATI" debate has raged for years. it quite is a controversy of non-public style, no be counted what information people who're on one area or the different of the controversy could declare. i may be greater worried approximately different advantageous properties. Whichever gadget is the greater powerful deal ordinary is what could tip it in for you. additionally, in basic terms FYI, notebooks at the instant are not traditionally good gaming machines. don't get me incorrect, there are gaming notebooks accessible that can carry their very own... and those you're finding at ought to in all possibility be 2 of them. yet in basic terms comprehend that while you're deadly extreme, you like a working laptop or workstation gadget it quite is overclocked and runs way too warm and desires all varieties of cool cooling mods. desire that facilitates.
both under 1GB and the 4200 is no good for games like that.
