Hi folks,

I have an Nvidia Geforce 2 ti200 with 128mb, and
have the opportunity to get an ATI Radeon 9100
Pro also with 128mb. Both cards have the same
outputs.

Which is the more powerful card, and what would
you advise that I do?

No such card... get Aida32 from www.aida32.hu and confirm WHAT video
card you have... helpful for other stuff too.

You most likely have a rare GF3-Ti200 with 128mb RAM (no such thing as
a 128mb GF2) - it's faster than the Radeaon 9200 and down.

Do you mean GF3 Ti200?

In your situation, I think I'd stick with a GF3 Ti200--the 9100 would
probably be a little faster, but not worth the cost to upgrade, unless
by "opportunity to get" you mean somebody is going to give you one.



Yes, I do mean a GF3 Ti200, apologies. Yes, I do mean 'opportunity to
get' to mean to obtain it without a payment exchange.

Thanks for your advice. I've stuck with my GF3 Ti200.

Yes, you're right, there is no such card. I have the GF3 Ti200. I wasn't
aware that the 128mb versions were rare.

The card is an Abit Siluro GF3 Ti200 with VGA, DVI and TVO. It's also
nicely styled, with heatsinked RAM and a nice fan assembly.

The opportunity to acquire the Radeon has now passed, and I stuck with
the GeForce.

Thanks everyone,

Andrew

What do you mean stuck? The 9200 is slower than your GF3.

If you want to upgrade, get at least a Ti4200, after that - an ATI
9600Pro or FX5900.

I mean I kept my GeForce, and did not swap it for the Radeon.

Sorry for all the confusion I've caused in this thread :-)

1 - I knew what you meant. I took the meaning of your post in that
you FELT bad on not being abile to DOWNGRADE/side grade to another
video card that you were presented with.

2 - No confusions with your thread, no need to apologize. You didn't
ask any thing stupid. You learned about upgrading and will have
better ideas for your next purchase.
