What do you guys think of this card for $59.99?
I'm interested because it has DVI and 128 Megs... I could finally pull out my PCI secondary...

I have had no problems with it. The 64MB ran a little fastre then the 128 MB version making it at the time I chose it the 3rd best graphics card.
However...by today's standards, it is pretty far down. When I got mine 2 years ago it ran about $120 for the 64MB and about $130 for the 128MB.
It still runs all games without problems - haven not yet had to drop graphics resolutions from 1280x1024 for any games.
Only thing: $60 seems a bit pricy for a 2+ year old card that only was selling then for double that.

or a GeForce Fx 5500, with DVI, 128MB, and 8x AGP for $68

or, if you want to splurge and spend $10 more, you could get the ati 9600, 128MB, 8x AGP, with DVI, for 70$

(Hey, I just like to view all my choices before purchasing anything, the GeForce 4 ti series IS a good series though!)

Last time I hit up Pricewatch, thats what a GF3 Ti200 64MB went for.
$60 for a Ti4200 is a good deal.
A2597: The FX5500 is a POS. Its a hell of alot slower than the GF4. Hell, all of those cards are slower than the GF4. (atleast they're all slower than my Ti 4600)
;)
And this is the Geforce 4200, not 4600....
Now I have to make a decision soon, whether to get one while suppplies last, or wait and shop some more...
$60 is a lot easier for me to spend right now than $120...
;)
So...thus why I go with nVidia now.
I've been laid off again...
Have 2 weeks of work to do left and I am left hanging until they have more work for me...
:rolleyes:
Fuck I hate California...
I may disappear for a while here in a couple weeks... don't be suprised...:alien:
Hope you find something soon!
if you have carpentry skills, come to florida! I swear, there are thousands of contractors down here, and every one is booked for at least a month in advance and having to turn down work.
[B]dang man...

Maybe they should wait for Jeane to make landfall...
Yeah, anyways, I get to telecommute for the next 2 weeks, and then I am out to dry, so I have a job search I should start doing here...
If I don't post anything for a bit, it's nothing personal... ;)
[B]Including the 9600?

Yes, including the shitty 9600.

Naw, really? Try reading posts completely before replying in the future, mmmk?
Jack: Sorry to hear that bud. Hope everything works out ok.

HOLY CRAP...
That is just unbelieveable. The 9600 Pro gets over 100, why on earth would the non-pro be so shitty?
I mean, the 9800 non-pro is just *slightly* slower then the 9800 Pro, and with a bios flash, it IS a 9800 Pro. I assumed the same was true for the 9600....

Why do you think the 9600 is so cheap? Its their equivilent of nVidia's MX line. I'm not saying its not a good card by any means, but its still a low-end card.
