Default MX, TI, & FX. WTF?

Hi folks,


I understood that the MX line was the budget lower
powered cards, and the TI cards were the high
powered ones. Now everything is all FX, how do I
tell which are the budget cards, and which are the
high powered ones? Is it simply a case of the
higher the model number the better the card? Is
there an idiots guide to this? Thanks,


Andrew

I understand you. If any company (let's say Noname3D) crates a line of gfx
cards with these names:
Noname3D Card #1 Pretty Fast model
Noname3D Card #1 Really Fast model
Noname3D Card #2 Really Slow model But Faster Than Card #1 Pretty Fast
Noname3D Card #2 Pretty Fast model
Noname3D Card #3 Ok This Makes All The Other Card Models Perform Really Slow
In Comparison

.... I'll buy the #2 Pretty Fast model ASAP. Or...?

I wouldn't call You Just Jess as You are THE Jess. I fully agree with
Your answer. But, the OP mentioned WTF cards as well. I wonder what
does are? I have the feeling the F might have something to do with
Microsoft trying to make cards for themselves...


LoL, I'm not entirely sure if you're serious or not
"MX, TI, & FX. WTF?" reads "MX, TI & FX. What the f*" (As in beeing totaly
confused by all the different names.

And if you were makinga joke.. you got me

Best Wishes
