nvidia Card Recommendation? FX5200 FX5600 ultra 256mb ti 4200
Can anyone give some good recommendations on which video card to pick
based on my current setup? I have been happy with it playing vice city but I have begun to see problems after I install a few dozen mod cars. Dell Dimension 8100 P4 1.3 GHz 256mb PC800 in 2 rimms Geforce 2 GTS 32mb Etc What are your opinions based on past experience of the Geforce 2 GTS. How do you test your system performacne 3dmark something? I plan on upgrading the CPU to 2 GHz and doubling the memory but I think it is obvious that the video card is the weakest link, so it is going bye bye! Is this assessment correct? I have my eye on the FX5600 ultra 128mb and FX5600 256 non-ultra. Considering my system would FX5200 128 be an adequate alternative or is it crap? I will be playing doom 3 and the other up in coming high end games. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance! |

I think that the geforce 2 GTS is the best for that machine. With other
cards you just throw away money. "phelps8100" wrote in message m... Can anyone give some good recommendations on which video card to pick based on my current setup?
