GF 4 Ti 4600 to 5600 Ultra
Would it be worth going from a GF 4 Ti 4600 128/4X AGP to Chaintech FX71
5600 Ultra (Flip Chip) 128 Meg/8X AGP. I'm not looking to play Doom 3 with this card, just add some eye candy and zoom to what's out there. I've been deployed so much I still haven't finished Half Life LOL. Just have that 6 month upgrade itch. TIA Joker |

Both cards are suppossed to be about the same speed for current games, and then the FX card will give you more eye candy when HL2, Doom3 are out. I'm sticking with my Ti4 and upgrading my CPU. |

If you are looking for performance upgrades, probably not. If you are
looking for DX9 and OpenGL 1.3+ compatibility in hardware plus a few more features and to stay on the most current hardware then yes. Personally, I'd look at my CPU and memory situation and consider upgrading them. Ron "Joker" wrote in message ...
