This A Good Card?

[Mrguy123]

I am basically looking for a good Card for Star Wars Galaxies I have now a GeForce4 Mx 440 (NVIDIA) 64mb.. I am looking at this card which BigDawg said was good. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....epa=1&section=3 (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-102-295&depa=1&section=3) What do you think?

no tht card is very crappy if u want a 9600 go for a 9600pro or 9600XT 128MB not 256mb because as i heard from other ppl on the board no game requires 256mb it is actually possible to slow down performance with 256mb <_<

so pay the little extra money and go for a 9600pro ;)

I built a new computer and this was to be the card. Well the computer would not start right with the card in I tried my radeon 9000 and it worked fine so I sent it back to try again and guess what same thing. I thouth about living with the start up problem because it wasn&#39;t that big of a deal then the instaballity problems started. My computer would freeze or the screen would go black at random times. I finally decided to eat the 15% and go with a Geforce fx 5600 ultra and what a difference. DO Not try this card now it may be good in a few months when the bugs get worked out but don&#39;t get it now.

amd 2600+
biostar m4ncd prd
1.25 Gb kingston 2700 value ram
wd 80 gb hd
geforce fx 5600 ultra it kicks

Stick with nivida Geforce Cards fx 5600 & above, no crappy ATI cards they are naff :P Never have liked them, always seemed to be a let down.

Hey you have had a Geforce card, what you thought of it? If happy buy another but FX5600 & above, 128Mb at least 256Mb is better, but it&#39;s a spec thing for 256mb ram :P

SO then this card http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/se...P450-8507&Tab=2 (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=33693&Sku=P450-8507&Tab=2) Would be very good for Star Wars Galaxies and other games?

256mb is not good right now...

if u want to get a 256mb card go for an 9800XT or 9800pro or Fx5900 lol which im sure is out of ur price range...

a 9600pro or a fx5600 ULTRA


stick with 128MB search on the board more maximus.... <_< :P
yes ofcourse he has had a geforce card look at the first post&#33; :P

I have now a GeForce4 Mx 440 (NVIDIA) 64mb

Ok then I am going to purchase this card http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/se...P450-8507&Tab=2 (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=33693&Sku=P450-8507&Tab=2) Since there is no complaints about it.... This card is better than my old GeForce MX 440 right?
