Is far cry too hard for anyone else?

I'm getting weary of shooters where there is, at first, a logical and sensible degree of physics applied to the combat, i.e., "Rhenna shoots bad guy in the chest with a 12 gauge at 15 paces; bad guy lies very still afterwards". However, about one-third or halfway through, apparently your...

Help With New Card For Aging Machine

1. 32Mb ATI Radeon 7000 AGP. (Probably has an edge on 2D quality.) 2. 32Mb nVidia GF2 MX400 AGP.

buying a video card gonna do it today need some help

Forget the FX5200. (I mean, really forget the FX5200.) Forget the 128-bit 9800SE. The 9600XT and the 256-bit 9800SE *might* wind up being comparable, *if* you can get a little overclocking going on the 9800SE. (This is assuming that it's a 380MHz core/600MHz (effective) memory card to begin...

Another "Which card for this rig?"

I also agree, adding only that, as an owner of both a pair of Radeon 9500Pros, and a FX5900XT, that the nVidia card would be my choice if, for some reason, I needed to retire the other two rigs. I just find that the nVidia hardware/drivers are much more forgiving on older games, which is VERY...

upgrading video cards??

All eight pipelines on the 9500Pro are already enabled by default. The 9600SE has only a 64-bit memory bus; ditto for any other ATI card with "SE" in it's designation. Also, the 8500/9100 series cards would have a slight edge over the 9000/9200 series. Aside from what you can obtain used, the...

What's better - ATI 8500 or nVidia fx 5600???

The FX5600LE or 5600XT would be a "no-go". However, if your game collection contains some older titles, especially earlier Unreal-engine titles, (pre-UT2k3), then the FX5600 would be the better choice. All of the RADEONs, (R100, R2X0, R3X0), regardless of platform or driver, do a lousy job of...
