So how good is the 7000? Its SDR AGP. I'm not really looking for wheather or not I should buy it, cause I already have it. I got it for free from my dad. I was just wondering if it would play CS or UT2k1 and maybe Vice City. Any help would be nice!

As I sit up in my bed looking at all the stars, I begin to wonder... WHERE THE HECK IS MY ROOF!?

They are slow cards for sure. I had a 64MB DDR Radeon 7000 ($25 Newegg refurb) and it was easily outperformed in almost every game/benchie by both a Radeon 32MB DDR (7200) and an 32MB SDR 7200 also. If your's is a 32MB SDR R7000, it will be slower than mine.

Here you can see how the 7000 stacks up to 79 other cards in a few games:

32MB or 64MB, SDR or DDR won't be a huge difference on that card anyway. :tongue:

Maybe not, but Just listing some things about it. Will it run counter-strike well?

To be honest, no.
Maybe would of played 1.5 well but 1.6 would probably run pretty slow. I'd say around 40-60 fps depending on resolution.

Can't tell you as I sold mine off in a used non-gaming computer. But the Radeon 7200's played the original UT fine.

Of couse the 7200's support Hardware T&L and have 128-bit memory not 64-bit. I guess you'll have to tell us how it does. :wink:

Well I'm really only interested in 1.5.. cause thats what we use for lan-parties.. But 40-60 fps is kinda good isnt it? Cause thats what this one usuly is, and it runs a lagless game.

Doom3 at 40fps feels nice but cs at 40 fps feels very choppy to me.
Maybe it's just me that thinks that. But cs with what most games would be playable fps, just feels choppy.
