I tell ya get the Radeaon 9600 or 9800 (both 128)it will cot you 200 bones but you wont have to buy one again.  And if you buy a game nowadays it will prolly require you to have that card anyways

 I have a Radeon 7000, 64 MB.   It works for the new sims2, and I seldom have problems with pogo (except on wednesday)  I got it online for $42.07 including shipping.

Your very welcome, We're a single income family and $200 is alot of money for a graphics card.  So finding a cheaper one that works was great for me!!!!  I got it at www.mwave .com!!! you just need to make sure that wait you buy (especialy if it just the card and not the whole ghaphics mother board) that it works with you computer... I.E... mine has an AGP slot.
The front of your computer should say what you have.

Chunky not quite sure what you mean i looked at the front and it doesn't tell me anything about a slot?? just says on the side of the coputer nVidia Vanta Graphics card, is that what you are talking about?? When i called stores there where saying 600.00 to update just to a 64 and what a bummer that is  :'(

You should go to best buy and ask them what are the best options and prices for you puter, it might be worth checking in a Radeon Graphics Motherboard around $200 or soo.  They should just make puters with 124 bit graphics.

Depending on how old your pc is sometimes it's just better to buy a new one rather than replace parts. Dell has desktops starting at $349.00 :o

Title: Re: video/graphics cards
Post by: Homer on January 21, 2005, 03:37:06 PM
Wouldn't shipping and handling and insurance kill you? Probably cost about $100 US to ship overseas.

Try going to the dell website and see how much they would want. ;)
