no! youre ti 4600 will out perform it! the clock speeds are higher but the core desighn is based around vertex and pixal shaders making it actualy slower in some cases but handling complex renerering mutch better than the g-4.it just dosn't have the raw speed (fill rate) like the ti series.

if you are wanting the equivilant or better than youre ti-4600 than you beter go with the 5600 ultra revision 2.0. don't get the revision 1.0 5600 ultras they are clocked too low. NVIDIA has stated the first fx 5600s were not performing as planned and upped the clock speeds from 350/700 too 400/800 on the ultras. so be carefull and do some research before buying!


good luck!
