Graphics card.

[Zhium]

Well my not a big person who knows everything about the comp but I was woundering about graphics card. I have a NVIDIA Geforce 6150 LE 256MB. Now i know I need a better one. But I don't have the money for 200+ dollor graphic cards that have 556Mb or whatever they have. I was woundering if I got a better graphics card that was 256MB but better would it make playing the game better? or would it be a waste of my money? My FPS suck which kind sucks lol.
Not sure it matters but my comp is AMD 64processor 2.20GHz and 2gigs of ram about.


Thank you.

AGP or PCIe? Your choices are stifled on AGP.

For that processor I recommend an ATI X1950 pro. Several ATI partners have them, Sapphire, powercolor and I beleive visiontek using AGP.

If you have PCIe, the same card is well within your budget, but youmay want to price a X1900 XT 256. Little faster, but again its all about money. If yuo have PCIe, buying an better card is a good choice as its the new standard and will be around longer.

I am not that up on Nvidia's product offerings, I am sure some one will chime in and offer you alternatives.

I recently purchased an Nvidia 7900GS. It cost me about $145, and I could not be happier with my performance.
