Geforce3 Ti200 or Geforce FX5200?

[dankingdc]

Don't know if this is the right place to ask the question, but I obviously need to upgrade my Geforce4 MX, and these seem to be the cheapest options that will run SCPT. Both have 64MB of RAM. Does anyone have any insight into which is a better chipset, and which will be more useful for SCPT and down the road?

Neither, get a Radeon 9600 XT, you'll be better off for this and future games, neither one of those will support future games.

Well, if you had to choose between these two, which would you do? My budget is $40, and I don't think I'll find a Radeon 9600 XT for $40.

My homie has a GeForce3Ti2000 (actually even MX) and the game runs just fine on 800x600 (you want the extra smoothness in mp to snap necks and make cool jumps more easily and accuratly.) Didn't have a single prob with the vid card tought. Don't know about the other one. Ohh and the details were on medium. And he was still probably hitting the 60s fps(with the gfx fix.)

for 40$ i'll bet the fx5200 is a 64-bit memory bus model, in wich case the ti200 is by far the better choice.
