Video card suggestions

Post by SpareX »

I've been doing a bit of research and im looking for a graphics card to replace the one in both my systems. (see specs below for full sepcs)

Guidelines -
AGP
under 200
Must be much faster then ti4400 and if possible faster than a 9800Pro 128..

I've been thinkin about just getting anohter 9800Pro 128 for system B but I've been tempted to upgrade that card too.. just havent been too happy with the performance of it as of late.. same resolution as my ti4400 and i'm getting same performance of it and random sputtering that the ti4400 doesn't get some times.. (gonna do a wipe and reload soon of the big system to see if its an aged os issue)

Grab a newer generation, X800 Pro or 6800 series; you'll spend a little more than $200 but worth it.

That would even replace the older gen 9800pro or just the ti4400?
