WHICH VIDEO CARD - PAUL SMITH????

[PattiChati]

My original post wasn't getting any more replies and Paul Smith was helping
me determine what video card to get, I have the Intel (R) 82915G/GV?910GL
Express Chipset Family by Intel
- here is the post
so what video card to I get, I want to go the cheapest way, since this is
just to play one game.
Thanks

Okay, this is what I was told to get - JATON VIDEO-208PCI-64Twin GeForce

MX4000 64MB 64-bit DDR PCE Low Profile Video Card with L-P Bracket. When I
look this up the reviews are horrible on it. I went to newegg.com. I
want it for my computer - would that make a difference on the reviews. I
am really afraid to do this with such bad revies. What do you think?

Avoid cards with MX in their title. The GeForce 4 MX, is in many ways less
powerful than the GeForce 3.

What video card do you have at the moment?

Have a look around for a Radeon 9200, or GeForce 5200 and up. I think that
would be a good place to start.

If I was building a system I'd make sure it had at least a Radeon 9800,
that way I'd be very confident it could handle every game on the market.

I found a JetWay 92SE-AD-128B Radeon 9200SE 128MB DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card -
Retail
Would that be good for my needs?

That would do the job, one thing to make sure first is that your computer
has an AGP slot.
