which cards can do directX 9?
I am totally confused:
Bought a game for my son: Lego Bionicles (PC). Per the box and website, it requires DirectX 9.0. The box also says ATI Radeon w/32MB or NVidia.. http://shop.lego.com/product.asp?p=14683 OK. I need to get him a new graphics card (currently cheap built-in graphics, but there is an AGP slot.) When I look at the ads, only the new ($$$) say the are DirectX 9. (And obviously nothing with only 32MB of graphics memory is in that category.) Can older and/or less expensive boards support DirectX 9.0? As the box says it only needs a card with 32MB, I doubt this is an overly demanding game. What cards would you recommend for up to $75 that would support DirectX 9. And how much more can I get if I go to $100. (Bearing in mind that this computer will probably get replaced in ~2 years and we will move on to PCI Express, etc.) Thanks in advance. |
