Which one is better for gaming?

 

[Istonian]

The 8600 no doubt. The specs say it and so do benchmarks. 8600 is a better card.

Ya the 8600 is the way to go.

 

[Atomic Rooster]

The 8600GT is the better card for gaming by a wide margin. HD2600 XT vs. 8600GT benchmarks.

 

[Dark Night]

8600gt I would guess.
