I am non-gamer- not interested in doing any sort of games. I am thinking of buying a video card for my new build. I have bought a 19" ViewSonic Optiquest (Q19wb) LCD screen. Would like to know this card (FREETECH PX6200TD-128M GeForce 6200 128MB 128-bit DDR PCI Express x16 Video Card) will suit my purpose ?. If this card is not worth the money, please suggest some other card. Well, I am looking for a cheap one. Thanks,

For a new build, consider a motherboard with onboard graphics. A G965 board may cost only $10 more than a P965 board, depending on vendor.

Yea, it's good.

Better than integrated.

The bad thing about the G965 is that it is really poor at overclocking. So for none gamers who still want to overclock, it's better to get a P965 mobo and a cheap discrete video card.

Just my $0.02.

get a 7300 it is great for multi media and everyday use. it will run some games if need. or get onboard video it is bad but will get the job done for every day use

hope this helps the 7300 run about 70 bucks or less on newegg.com or check tigerdirect.com

If you're not gaming, the 7300 will show no benefits over the 6200.

Thanks- it helps me. I am strictly a non-gamer. So I will go with the above card. Read that the above card can be flashed to upgrade as 6600. Not sure I will benefit anything from that- but might try once I get it.
