Hi there,
I am trying to decide on a new video card. My options are either a Radeon 8500 128mb (built by ATI) or a GeForce4 Ti 4200 64mb. The GeForce4 is probably a cheaper "off-brand", but I'm not exactly sure (a friend is going to purchase the card from the store he works at). The Radeon is also cheaper than GeForce card. I am of the opinion that more video ram is better, but I would like to have the opinions of some other people as well.
The new card will be replacing a now defunct GeForce2 GTS 32mb sdr card that I have not had any good experiences with. The rest of the system specs follows:
P3 1GHz
Asus cusl2 mobo
512mb pc133 sdram
80GB hd
8x dvd-rom
10x cdrw
network adapter
sound card
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
