ATI All In Wonder 7500/9600 vs ATI 600 USB - Which is best?

BOTH cards can:
Conclusion: So I'd have to say that the 600 will not be an upgrade, in terms of having better video quality. My biggest interest in the ATI 600 card has been portablility. I can move it between multiple computers, including Vista and Win7 systems. Important and slightly related information... The ATI All In Wonder Radeon cards were marked by series 7000, 7200, 7500, 8500, 9000, 9200, 9500, 9600, 9800, 2006 SE ... and probably few others I'm forgeting. Some of the first 7000 series cards were available in PCI, but the rest were all AGP slot cards. A few of the last AGP cards were 8x slot cards only, worked in fewer systems, like the 2006SE. The 7000 series cards used the Theatre 100 (Rage Theatre) chipset, while the 9000 series cards used the Theatre 200 chipset. The 200 chipset had somewhat better MPEG recording quality, maybe 5-10% at most. It was simply more efficient at the GPU processing on-card. The ATI USB 600 card uses (I believe), the Theatre 500 chipset. Of course, newer doesn't mean better -- it just means it was created/built at a later date. Hope that clarifies things for you! :) Honestly, I'd still buy an ATI 600 card. It's nice to have. Get one for under $50 shipped at Amazon right now, great price: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...SIN=B00138EOH8 Thanks.
