Advantages: Fairly cheap, Good for older games Disadvantages: Not very good for todays games or even some of yesterdays
it ran terrible. To get a playable frame rate I had to turned everything to low, disable all options and put the res to a hideous 640x480. Anything higher and it was virtually unplayable.
This causes me to give the card a low rating as it fails to deliver any sort of acceptable performance to games, its not even one of those cards for budget systems that only want to be used for older games, because the price tag of it is still £70-80 and you could pick up a faster ti 4200 for around £60.
Better still wait that extra month and buy a XFX 5900xt its the best 'bang for buck card' you can get now!
Long story short, I simply cannot find a reason to recommend this hardware, because if you want a budget card there are so many other choices out there that are cheaper and better, like the ti 4200, and if moneys not such ...
Advantages: Very High Spec, Very Compatiable Disadvantages: Highish price tag.
Since purchasing my first PC over two years ago now, I have only ever owned one graphics card, the impressive-back-then-not-too-impressive-now Nvidia GeForce 3 Ti200. With its 128mb of ram and impressive specification it played games with no trouble from Grand Theft Auto 3 to Need For Speed Underground.
With the release of DirectX 9.0c and many new games namely Doom 3, NFSU2 and the upcoming GTA San Andreas I decided to bite the bullet and get a new graphics card so I can continue my hardcore gaming habits with the releases of now and the furture.
I initially went out for the impressive Radeon ATI 9800 but for some reason, probably due to the christmas season, these seemed to be unavailable everywhere. I was browsing at my local branch of Maplin Electronics I came across the uniquely packaged Nvidia Geforce 5900xt for the quite ...
Advantages: Good game bundle, Racing Simulator 3, Comanche 4, and Ghost Recon, High end performance and vivo (video in video out) Disadvantages: Too expensive, ATi equivalent still leads
and stability. It usually jerks with midrange graphics cards but my new graphics card handled the game without any struggle. But then I realised, after playing a couple of hours, that I wouldn't need VIVO. It was of no use to me. That would have saved me around £30 and I could get better performance and quality from ATi for a cheaper price. I could have just bought a Radeon 9800XT/TVD. Which I did buy afterwards. The bottom line is, this is an excellent graphics card but the price is too hefty and has features like VIVO that most people dont even need. I would recommend an ATi instead of a GeForce to a serious gamer. ...
