The latest games such as Halo, Doom3, Half Life 2, etc. have large textures
that need lots of video memory. They also require DX9 compatible cards to
be seen as intended, and your older card is not DX9 compatible.


Halo - Side by side comparison between a GF4 and GF5... no real
visable differences were noticed.

Half Life 2 tech Demo - Marginal visual differences - GF5 looked a bit
"too" shiny (ie: fake) - bit shadow effects looked a bit better.
