Should I change Vids?

I got a Visiontek geforce 3.... Is the radeon 9000 128mb better?
Worth trading in for it?

what geforce 3? ti what? the 9000 isn't exactly a stellar card. for the money you will spend on it i would consider something else. whats your budget and i'm sure we can give ya some good advice

a 9000 wouldnt be an upgrade from a GF3. Its a lightly castrated Radeon 8500

my Geforce is just a plain geforce 3... not a ti200 or ti500...

Im looking at a price range of about $100-200 CDN. What can you recommend?

Radeon 9500

 

[Vio1]

the 9500 is too expensive. Its over $200 CDN.

In that price range, about the only actual upgrade you could get would be a Ti4200 or Radeon 9500 non-pro. Either of these would be a step up. It would also be my best that you could get an awesome overclock out of the 9500 non-pro, putting it on par with a 9500 Pro. My 9500 non-pro didn't take the soft-mod, but it's happy O/Cing to 375/317 and it can fly.

I'd think about a Ti4200..
