Budget Gaming
 
An ideal upgrade to on-board graphics if you need to keep it under 5k!
 
Rahul Gupta

The Sapphire HD 3650 is an entry-level graphics card ideally suited for those who are looking to upgrade their onboard graphics.

The Sapphire HD 3650 has 120 stream processors running at 725 MHz and a total of 256 MB DDR 2 memory running at 1.6 GHz. The onboard video decoder accelerates MPEG-2, MPEG-4, VC-1, and H.264 video decoding too.

We tested this graphics solution using our benchmarks and got a score of 3350 in 3DMark06, which is good for this price. The average frame rate for Company of Heroes at max settings was 24 FPS and 55 FPS at low setting which is again average. With Unreal Tournament 3 it achieved a frame rate of 30 FPS with normal settings which is still playable.

At a price of less than 5k, this card will be a good option for those who just want better Windows Vista performance and for the occasional gamer. However, for a similar price, you might also look at NVIDIAI 8600 GT with 256 MB DDR2 RAM which gives better performance.
