i currently have a 64mb geforce 2 mx 400 with tv-out. its a great card, but its not that powerful, games look great, but i can\'t get the resolution up that high, otherwise the game slows down.
i am running an AMD 1.4ghz, 256mb ddr pc2100, 60GB 7200rpm HD, SB Live! 5.1. i have my choices up in the poll, but if you guys have other suggestions, lay it on me. i dont want to spend a lot of money, but if i must, then i can spare it.

well personally I\'m getting the decked out GeForce 4 Ti4600 before the end of summer after I get 512mb of ram so I can play some of the newer games at more than 30fps with all effects on. But the ram is more for all the windows I have open. Anywayz since you have a 1.4Ghz a Geforce 3 is more than enough since the GeForce 4 is pretty expensive and don\'t even touch the watered down GeForce Mx it is inferior to the Geforce 3...hope I helped.

GATEWAY! GATEWAY! I will Never EEEEEVER buy from them again! I would personally get the Geforce 4Ti I like Nvidias products.....they keep their drivers updated too (some are beta tho.......) the geforce 4Ti should be good for a year or 2 before the Geforce5 comes out (I hate it when the bring out new Stuff every year or every other year......things get out-dated too quick).
:hat:ScotttyJ:hat:

GF4 Ti4600 if you want the absolute best. Otherwise get a GF3 Ti500 or a Radeon 8500.

i HATE gateway, but i cant argue with a visiontek GF4 ti500 for $339 and NO shipping
the exact same card will be at best buy for $399 + 7% tax
-
hmmm...seems to be a toss up between gf4 and gf3. i think that the geforce 3 ti500 might be best because of its price, thats if i can get a good deal on it. what can i do with my gf mx? how much do you think i can sell it for on ebay? i had it for about 8 months, 64mb version with tv-out. i got the original box, manual, driver disc, composite cable, everything. like $50? $40?
-
GF4 Ti4200 should be $200 or less (if I remember correct). I would wait for that one.
-
i guess benchmarks is the best way to find out, anyone know where i can possibly find benchmark comparisons with the cards i\'m looking at?
-
i have a geforce3 by Gladiac and its pretty damn sweet - i got it at a good price too a while back so i imagine its gone down some
if you need top of the line id just say go for the gef 4 but 3 is still got plenty potential left
-
Gah....probably not the best thread for my first post seeing as it looks like I\'m the only ATI fan here. :D
All 3 are great cards, but I prefer the Radeon series myself to the GeForce. Nvidia\'s cards are great, but their drivers are usually too unstable for what I do aside from gaming (video editting, etc). Although the newer Detonators have been a drastic improvements.

Well, I\'d go with the Geforce 3. Actually, I\'m that\'s the card I\'m planning on purchasing for my computer in the near future :)
