Graphics Cards?

by Nathan · in General Discussion · 05/11/2006 (11:55 am) · 4 replies

Hi guys, I really need to upgrade my graphics card but can't shell out more then $60-80 bucks right now... Are there any good cards for this price?

Thanks,
Nathan

Nope. For that price you could get a Radeon 9550 256mb or Nvidia fx5200 256mb or there abouts. I'm from Australia and you would be talking about $US so things might be slightly different. Does you mb have an agp slot?

It has a PCIx16 express slot. I actually just bought a new computer. But the graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce 6100, and isn't very good.

Ah sweet! I was under the impression cos you had so little to spend on card you were using an older mb. The cheapest card I would recommend is the 6600, in Australia pending brand you can pick one up for around $180, which I guess is around $150 US. I don't think pci-e cards start much lower than that.
