Hello there,
Need help in which card to go for...I used to have a ATI 9700 AIW 128Mb AGP, but after upgrading the whole system have ended up (without much choice) with a GeForce 6200 TC 256Mb PCI-E card.
I'm finding the 6200 is not that bad for my usage...but in my opinion does tend to make the CPU work a bit harder - i dont run major games but even things like NFSU2 can get pixilated in the background detail and is being run at a low res.
I'm looking for a card with ideally 256MB dedicated (PCI-E a must!!) and somewhat more powerfull then my old ATI 9700 and Geforce 6200.
I dont want a loud noisy card and i have a mATX system so i dont want anything with a big fan (taking up space!!).
Im looking to spend not big bucks - £50 or there abouts!
Current setup consists of - Intel P4 3Ghz with HT, 1.5GB RAM and other bits
