Hi once again all, Still pondering on a card for my rig. I have come across people who say 256MB in a card is a waste of money as it is never used and that 128MB iss ample memory. Is this true? I won't touch Doom3, just some HL2 and a fair amount of Counter Strike Source. I will use a few...

No. Start looking for places to buy the 6800gt or x800pro vivo cheaply. One such is http://www.provantage.com/buy-7pnyv03p-geforce-6800-agp-8x-256mb-ddr3-pny-technologies-graphics-audio-vcg6800gapb-shopping.htm tho it's not in stock now. rms

My daughter's PC is quite slow and I plan to improve it by giving her my FX5200 gfx card. But my budget is tight so I'm thinking of upgrading my own PC to an FX5600. Is this wise? Please don't advise that I purchase an 5700 (or better) since these cards are still prohibitively expensive in the UK....

Is it worth replacing my MX440 (64Mb) with an FX5200 (128Mb)? I appreciate that this FX is bottom of the range. But would it make any difference to my graphics performance? Cheers. Bobby

Have rocks in your head? Think about getting yourself a XGI Volari Duo V8 Ultra -- a little longer than an fx5950, has fx5800 accoustic qualities, slower than a 440mx in many tests, and provides plenty of additional heating. But there's more!! Every card comes with set of optimised drivers...

I have a secondary gaming computer that I made from spare/used parts. It has: AMD Athlon XP 2600+ 2x512MB Corsair PC2700 DDR 160GB 7200RPM IDE HDD DVD-RW eVGA 6800 XT AGP (256MB) Is it worth spending the $100+ to upgrade to the evga 7600 GS, or should I

I'll admit it. Now that the GeForce 6800s and GTs are becoming available I'm getting the upgrade itch. My current graphics card is a Leadtek 5900XT at 400/700, which I've been very happy with. CPU is P4 2.4C. The eVGA cards which newegg now has in stock include a copy of Far Cry. Not only is it a...

Hi, I have a Dell Dimension 2350 with the following spec. 2.6GHz P4 Northwood 512MB PC2100 RAM (Upgraded from 256MB) 120GB Hard Drive 64MB Intel Extreme (Extreme, my arse!) Integrated Graphics Would it be worth upgrading to an XFX GeForce FX 5200 128MB PCI Card? I

my current rig: Asus P4S533 M/B, P4 , 1 gig ram, GF4200Ti (o/c 275 core, 550 mem) I'm thinking of an ATI 9800 pro or should I wait for the Nvidia 6600 (will it be available in AGP?). TIA

Hi peeps. Recently bought Jetway MX440 8x. Not overly impressed. I can get a Geforce FX 5200 128MB for £50 or if I wait until after xmas, a Geforce FX 5600 128MB for £90, OR fx5600 256Mb for £120. or ati radeon 9200 128mb £50, or 9600 Pro for £110 So may I ask you guys advice on where to place...

I'm about about to build a new system , i was wondering would it be best to buy 2 x 256mb 8600GT or 1 x 8600GTS? do all games recognize and utilize the power of 2 cards in SLI ? opinions please.

Hi all, This may be a silly question, but I don't know the answer. I have a Gigabyte P35C-DS3R motherboard. This motherboard has only a single PCIe slot. I currently have a 8800GT 640meg video card. Would a 9---GX2 card run in this motherboard. I used to have an ASUS motherboard with 2 PCIe...

work as a good monitor? It's a HDTV ready flat screen 27". I have a PNY GeForce FX 5600Ultra card. By the way I like this card more that the ATI 9500 Radeon I replaced, ATI still has buggy drivers for a lot of the software I use.

I have a Gigabyte GA-BX2000 motherboard which supports 1x and 2x AGP. I am want to upgrade by system, but would prefer to do it in stages (available cash constraints... haha) I will eventually be updating the following: Motherboard: Gigabyte S478 Intel 865G ATX A V L (800Mhz Bus) Processor: ...

My mobo has a 4x AGP slot. Would buying an 8x AGP video card be over kill? I am shopping for a reasonably priced card to make Quake 4 run better. I have a P4 2Ghz with 1 Gig ram. My current Gforce 2 doesn't do it for me anymore.

Hello, My PC is as follows: Asus A7V400-MX Motherboard AMD Duron 1.8 Ghz 512 DDR RAM WinXP Geforce 5200

I'm currently trying to quiet down my PC, and the noisiest thing now is my Sparkle 6800 GT graphics card. I'm wondering if the following would work: Disable and remove the on-card fan, install a 12CM fan right below the card on a PCI slot. I'm not really concerned about the card running a...

As in Pre-order one of the first to be available. If not, why not? (I'm wondering if there are likely to be "teething" problems) thanks for any advice on this.

Since these two are the same price, I'm trying to make final decisions. Any info and comparisons appreciated. Thank you, Luke
