Hi,
1st post so go easy )
Got a Dell Dimension 8200 with a GeForce3 Ti500 which has served me well
for just over 3 years but alas I bought GTA San Andreas and realised
it's time!.
I've been searching for a few days now and the problem is I don't really
have the cash to splash out on a brand new top of the range Nvidia at
the moment so I am looking to the second hand market for something cheaper.
The Challenge! - Purchase a second hand Nvidia card for around £100 max
which will out perform the Ti500 and then some!. I still consider the
Ti500 to be reasonably fast (cue the laughs!) because it runs GTA
'reasonably' well - but not good enough!. Currently running it at
800x600 and when it rains in the game it's major slowdown!.
Looking for something I can run the game at 1280 comfortably.....
basically something worth spending the money on - don't want to spend
for not much improvement.
Any pointers much appreciated
Preferrably Nvidia....
