Which GeForce Card?
I'm on the verge of upgrading my current GeForce 3 Ti 200 to something else,
but at a budget :-(, probably no more than £100 I'm looking towards either a Leadtek WinFast A280 LE TDH MyVIVO which works out as: GeForce 4 Ti 4200 128MB DDR 8X AGP S-Video In Or a Nvidia FX 5200 series. Apart from GPU grunt (bear in mind I've got a GeForce 3 at the moment) I would really like a video-in since I want to capture video. Can someone suggest which way I should be going, it seems that the whole GeForce 4 v FX is a bit of a minefield? Cheers Mark

It's a little more expensive but a much better value IMO. If you were going to get an FX card I'd recommend at least a 5600, and probably then the ultra version. B.J.

Yup.
See just how kick-ass the Ti 4200 128MB is: http://www6.tomshardware.com/graphic...n_9600-07.html A solid gaming card for someone on a budget. "Martin Eriksson" wrote in message ...

given that the FX5200 would be a downgrade, I think your options become
quite clear
