Whats A Good Video Card

Right, I was just saying that since he has a suggested price range.

As far as him wanting a card in that price range and it being outdated soon - sure maybe. But the nvidia TI4200 - 4600 cards have held up and surpassed some of the newer GeFroce cards in some of the newer games. So it won't necessarily be outdated.

 

well, considering that now all games are switching to new engines, i expect it will, the only reason the GeForce 4's have held up is because most games till now are still all running the same engines they were designed for.

e.g. MOH:AA - running Q3 engine, COD - Running Q3 Engine

Now u see wat im getting at?

 

Understood. But as much as games are changing, how fast that happens remains to be seen.

 

Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB 256 Bit

 

I agree, you can also get drivers from omegadrivers.net that will safely overclock a cheapo 9800SE to an XT.

 

Im saving up some money- 300$ - do u think that will be able to buy the new generation of Vid Cards? Or Do u think i should just buy it now? I need it to play Battlefield 2 and Mohacific Assault

 

Along with ruining your warranty on the card.

 

Risk is part of the game... hmm that sounds like a nice sig quote for me. k? thnx^^

 

I would go with the radeon 9800 its pretty good and thats what I have.

 

geforce fx 5700 ultra is a good card thats what i got, for a decent price too, £80

 

Radeon 9800 pro is the best AGP i can think of for under 200. Its about 150 on pricewatch.

 

6600GT, Hands down best budget card.

its benchmark it topples over the Radeon 9800 PRO.

"Incorrect, Doom3 at high detail with 8xAA and 8xAF and at a resolution of 1600x1200 actually requires 512mb of graphics power. Therefore the only card(s) that can power it are the dual 6800 Ultras or GT's, at those settings at least"

Where are u getting those facts....

:lol:

 

definatlly the radeon 9800 pro well worth the money
