Hey guys. I've had the same computer and equipment for a few years now... in desperate need of an upgrade. Gonna start on the graphics card, because my current GeForce 4200 Ti can't run squat nowadays (was really sad when I couldn't run the BF2 demo. ) So, can anyone tell me some good graphics cards that are better than the 4200 Ti (not all that hard), but are cheap and might last me a bit?
I am running a 4600Ti. 128 Mb and runs most things just fine. Only issue I have noticed is when trying to play Doom3, gets a little jumpy from time to time. I play Mohaa and COD and get 135 fps constantly, and it only cost me $80 a year and a half ago. Would be real cheap now.
If you have the money, I would get this , I think this should last you at least 2 years with gaming maybe. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814145107
newegg is so expensive... i cant believe people buy from there. this is my video card and it runs everything and anything perfectly fine. http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=AA32690
Well money is an issue so that card is out for him. You need to get something that is 5900 or up if you wanna play BF2. I payed $140 for a Gigabyte 6600GT 256MB but that Chaintech that Logan recommend will work as well since it has better clock speeds since it has DDR3 Blind to be honest you could have bought this http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetai...ductCode=321331 and overclocked to the same speeds and save $100+ on it
I had the Nvidia GeForce Ti 4600 for 3 years. I bought a new one to run BF2 <_< . The new one I got was ATi Radeon 9550 256mb I love it! I can run BF2 on high but it does get jumpy from time to time. IT was real cheap also $100 I think it was at CompUSA.
I buy from them knowing if anything goes wrong , they will have the situation fixed in under 2 days and the warehouse is 15 minutes from me. They are not that much more expensive then tigerdirect or zipzoomfly. And your card, for $460 it better run perfect
He dosent have the money tho. You should an Nvidia card anyway as Ive had better experinces with them. But thats only me.
that 7800 isnt worth the money. my friend has the 6800 Ultra overclocked and it performs better than the 7800 would overclocked. newegg is one of the cheapest sites ive found, along with zip zoom btw.
them ATI's is good cheap graphics cards but they wear out in like 3 to 4 mouths even sooner depending on how much u play
lol man if u really where looking for a card and ur not worried about money...i would go with a nividia 7800GTX...and if u had another 600-700 and a motherboard that could do it...duel nividia 7800GTX's....thats what i plan on doing...but its like 1500$$$ for them
half the people are like...dude get this gfx card it only costs 1 million dollars...pay attention he said "money is an issue" so do us a favor and stfu with your ghey worthless advice... my advice: post some specs on your hd and post your price limit.... 169.99 here is the new xfx GeForce 6600 for AGP[LINK]
