Video Card?

**j4y3m** · 12-17-2003, 12:57 PM

I Think I Need A New Video Card But I Know Nothing About Hardware

Anyway I Want To Be Able To Connect My PS2 To It To Take Screenshots And Video And Be Able To Play All The Latest Games

I'm Thinking I'd Like To Spend About 100.00 GBP(175.043 USD) But I Can Afford Alot More

lol...you need WAY much more than that for a "good" system... you need like at least 600 us $ to play latest games...

oh lol my bad man... i had just woke up when i wrote it HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

dwk=dumb when he wakes up

oh well im up.... yea an 9600xt would be nice... but maybe a tv tuner card wouldnt be that expensive...

yea u could get get a tv tuner card to connect your ps2 to it.....but then like dwk said, tv tuner card is a tv tuner and not a video card....or you could go for a all in wonder card.

yea but i think an all-in-wonder card goes way up his budget.... although he DID say he can afford more...

if you can, get an 9600xt and a tv tuner card (which could be like 50 bucks or something...not quite sure....ima get a link)
