Fine, u got me, im a cheap *******. I have an old geforce 64mb card without, i think its called, pixal shader support. What graphics card would u recommend me getting thats around 100? 100-130$?



Posted by: Dark_Sniper*

you think you can put like 30 more so its 160 if so get a 6600GT. if not ill find something ;) for you.



Posted by: heifsin85

hmm, 30 more? ur cutting me deep, real deep sniper. I heard good things about the 6600Gt, good bang for the buck?



Posted by: Dark_Sniper*

yes it is a good bang for the buck im getting one also and im a cheap ******* to so. Yea it will last you a long time seeing you with a 64mb i can tell you can use it for a long long time lol. whats your mobo support 4x/8x for the vga card cause the 6600GT works for both:D so its a great buy. If you game its get if you use it for a home suer still great and will last.

If thats too much for you, I find that [URL=http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Submit=GO&Range=1&bop=and&description=Radeon+9800+Pro&InnerCata=48]this one[/URL] is also a very good performance/value card, and its cheaper
:D .

6600gt. TOTALLY worth it.



Posted by: heifsin85

Ya, ill probaly go with the 6600gt, even though id have to buy a new psu

9800 pro = Ugh whats the use..

The 6600GT is the best card for the budget-minded, PERIOD.



Posted by: damasta55r

I suggest the regular 6600.

Ofcourse the 6600GTs better, but if someone is REALLY short on cash and can't afford the 6600GT, then the 9800Pro is the next best choice.



Posted by: damasta55r

Well if he has an agp card, yes 9800pro, but if he has pci-express 6600. Or if all he has is $100, i'd say spend it on something else or save more money, as a sub $100 is not that good to upgrade if he already has a separate gfx card (i.e not integrated).

Well there has to be someone different on every block and I recommend ATi 9600 128 or 256 meg....smooth, price is right, and no driver issues. nvidia was on top until prices went through the roof and drivers joined them!



Posted by: PZEROFGH

9600xt for 90 dollars if your really cheap



Posted by: heifsin85

eh, i ended up buying the 6600gt.
