Default Gfx card advice - 10-26-2003 , 02:55 AM






Hi folks,

I'm going to update my graphics card (GF4MX 440) soon, and I would
like to have your thoughts on wether to go for a geforce ti 4200 or
the newer model FX5600. The latter seems to have come down in price a
bit recently and can be had for 100¤ or so (about $100).

Thanks in advance for your time,

Uwe

The GF4 ti 4200 has been superseded as the best card per buck by its team
mate the GF4 ti 4800.

I provided two customers with them recently and whilst testing found them to
be quite a bit faster than the 4200.

I chose Gainward Golden Samples and both were under £75

And the 4800 GS massively outperforms the 5600 and you save money.

Cool, thanks for the tip, Aidee. Looks like I'll go 4800 huntin' then
