The good stuff costs more than that! I use the ATI 9800XT; it set me back $540. I'm happy with it. My brother, Ramos, has the very latest from ATI, and it really seems to make a difference. I'm upgrading my motherboard and switching to a Pentium 4, 3.4. That combination should make a difference. ML |

ATI 9600 is what you need. Uses less power from your supply and less system resources, plus nvidia has been known to overheat quite easily.

I've heard that some ATI cards have issues with AMD.
Just something to keep in mind....don't know what processor you have/prefer. Also you may look at some off brand vid cards that use the same chipset as the name brand cards. Could save some bucks but make sure you read a couple of reviews. For Ex: I have an nVidia chipset that I know is made on an MSI card as well as Albatron....Albatron being cheaper. --------------------  "Difficulties come and they pass, but it is a shame that sometimes these difficulties must pass like diarrhea" |

lmao, i hit the null note button on accident too. Ati cards are the best graphics card that you can buy. They are very well priced for their performance too.

What the hell is the difference between the cards? I just play with the stock on my "Integrated Intel Extreme Graphics" on my HP504n...
