[EmpireKing]

ok so I hav a choice in getting one of these two cards for the lil change I have ATM...which one is better??

Radeon 9250 or Zogis GeForce 6200 256MB AGP




Another question a couple posts down

[Philosophical45]

6200... this was a rhetorical question right... i mean.. c'mon..lol 

[Saxito Pau]

WHAT.

I think you should ask this:

"Guys, I have $x dollars to spend and my board has a AGP/PCI Express slot. What should I buy?"

[EmpireKing]

...everyone here knows that imma n00b.....allyuh doh hav to rub it in

i'll go buy the 6200 this afternoon then....thnx



another question....

1..how is this Zogis card different from the normal 6200 I had before??

2..I see in the pic below this card has 3 "thingyies" to insert into the board....the slots on my board only has 2 "holes" (the thingyies i talkin bout labelled Interface)



will it still work???

Can you take a pic of your motherboard  (inside of your PC) and post it up BEFORE you rush to buy anything??

I have a 6600 GT thats head and shoulders above all the cards you mentioned.
I think you're wasting your money on a 6200.    You not playing games with that right?

uhh

what the hell is that fruit where a window should be

ok dude.. hear what.. if you can afford the 6600gt from arcman take it. and i see no need to post ur board number, i remember u having a 6200agp card before right, and u said someone took it(your brother or something), so you at least know what card u need to put in the system.

wintry, he's going for the cheapest solution, so gettin the 3850agp is out of the question.

i find this topic is a bit drawn out, arcman has a 6600gt for sale, if you can afford it go ahead, if you can't, get your 6200agp and rest comfortably(since u only want it to play combat arms)

remember his machine aint a, what you may call it, extreme gaming rig, so he won't need to buy the best of the best. he just wants a card now for now to play a game that doesn't require a powerful part. so ek... your decision is simple, make up your mind and let's get back to sweating combat arms..
