Hi all i have a Radeon 9200 128bit TV-Out Excalibur (rubbish card altho UT2k4 is perfect on it lol) and i have just purchased UT2004 and Farcry.

UT2004 is fine but farcry only works on the lowest settings and still isn`t great :( just wondering what graphics card i should upgrade to as i have £140 ($200) to spend on a new card.

I have an AMD Barton Core 2.8ghz @ 2.08 ghz
N-Force 2 7400 i think with 512 DDR ram
120gb Seagate Barricuda @ 7200rpm

I want to get all the settings to high or very high and i hear good things about 9800 just now.

Any help Much appreciated
:clap:
 
what are the cards in your price range? Here you can get a r9800pro for less then $200 refurbished, I don't know how much it costs in Scotland.
 
Thanks for your help guys looks like radeon 9800pro is the one to go for. We do get the good 9800 pros over here for £140 which is good i suppose lol and i will probably get another 512 DDR with that. :)

I must say i`m quite dissapointed with the 9200 128bit i can only (just) play far cry on its lowest settings which is a shame i`m just wondering if any of you have far cry with a 9800 and what ure settings can be put to??

AMD Athlon XP 2800+ @ 2080 (6.25 x 333)
Gigabyte GA-7N400pro Ultra 400
512 MB Pc2700 DDR SDRAM
Radeon 9200 128bit series
8 X DVD Rom
Lite-On LTR 24102b (24x10x40 CD/RW)
120Gb Seagate Barricuda @ 7200rpm
