I need to get a need card because my card (ATI Rage 128 ultra 32mb) is running to slow or wont run on alot of the newer games. I dont really want to spend to much money on one either because I dont really have it right now, between $70-$100. Thinking about getting the Geforce Fx 5200 128 mb good card or not, or let me know of a good card in that price range. And remember I have a 32 mb card right now.
System specs.
Windows xp
P4 1.8GHz
256mb ram (can somebody tell how to find out if you have DDR or SD ram)

And its suppose to "choose" instead of "choice" on the title.

the ti4200 seems to be the best bargain card...i'd compare that card with an ATI card within a similar price range...
www.newegg.com (http://www.newegg.com) is a good place to look...

it's better to choose a good one instead of buying one which you will throw away next year anyway

Pricewatch.com is still the best place to find the best price on almost anything that relates to computers. I use it a lot.
Hmm>I have the ATI 9500 Pro and it meets and even exceeds some of the stats of the G-Force 4600, but I am not sure what they are going for now.
Good luck:

look man, if your going to get something get the best. save up more money and get this video card, the 128 MB DDR ATI Radeon 9700 Pro, it will cost you $250 dollars but its worth it. thats what i have, and it runs everything.

Santiago, how much did your computer cost it as some nice specs.
