OK, I have a computer that is hooked to my 32" tv for playing back movies, dvd, music etc over my network from my big computer. Problem is the old TNT 2 may be dying. The picture is getting worse, and it was not great to begin with.
OK, I don't play many games on this, but I could. It is a 1.1ghz Celeron running winXP. I was just going to replace the card with a ATI 7500 and be done with it. Then I noticed the Geforce 3 goes for about $77 at newegg. I then saw that the FX 5200 non pro was $70 new and is about at the speed of the Geforce 3 with much better AA. Well, I looked at benchmarks, which were not great, but I will only be running this thing at 640x480 or so. I thought at that low res the FX 5200 may be ok for DX9 games.
Has anyone seen the TV out on one of these? I have seen the TV out on the ATI 7500 and it was pretty good. TV out on the GeForce 3 was also pretty nice, but I am not real picky.
Having a DX9 card seems at that low res seems like a decent deal for $70. Not my choice for anything else, but lets hear what everyone else has to say.
Thanks!!!
