Let me say this, it was WELL worth the money*. The only hard-core** 3D accelerated game that I play is Battlefield 1942. Gawd dam, it made such a difference. I can now turn everything up to full detail and run the game smoothly without any frame drops.

*I paid $173 for mine and now after 2-3 weeks it drops to $133. Dammit I'm pissed. Prices are according to Pricegrabber.com or Newegg.com

**I know, BF1942 isn't the more hardcore card user since there are games such as Unreal 2, Quake 3, etc etc that are the games used for benchmarks.

I did a page here on my website just to help you guys and gals out if you need to upgrade.
Wow sorry you got so raped on the price, but hey if your happy with the product you should feel that you paid what its worth and not dwell at all over that.

However, Battlefield uses the Unreal 2003 engine, and the ut2k3 engine is the most advanced 3d engine out today if i'm not mistaken much more so than say quake 3! as you mentioned.

HL2 is comming out soon and so is that Stalker game and then to be owned by all Doom3 will be relased and Quake4 using the doom3 engine so there will be plent of games to use your card to the fullets, but don't dog bf graphix they are top notch.

currently have an (dying I think) ATI AIW 7500 - sucks for games, but not a problem here as I have played maybe 5 minutes of games in the 3 months.

I do use the video/TV capture card for my VCR and as a potential TV I never ever watch, so a good replacement is going to cost me.

No plans on upgrading just yet, but I might have to depending on how well Star Wars Galaxies run on my system when I try it later this week.

gripe time

I have a sweet laptop, P4M 2.4, 512 ram.. Mobility Radeon M6.
This graphics card sucks and has limited/dog slow compatibility with any new games. Watch out for these. I wish i couldve gotten an nVidia or something else.

The newer Radeons and desktop Radeons are quality though. I was just disappointed that my top of the line laptop got its ass kicked by games like C&C generals and Warcraft3. It took much time to find a decent set of drivers.

Ti4200 64Mb is very nice (clocked faster than 128Mb as well!) Hasn't had any problems for me yet - but I'm not a hardcore gamer and only bought it because my Matrox G400 broke!

to be sure, the above mentioned postee has a gf4 ti 4600 running on a mac. all the explaination you need

i run on a radeon 8500, fast for just about every game out _now_, as long as you know how to tweak/mess with drivers.

BF1942 uses its own proprietary engine, coded by DICE. its actually quite a system hog, i might venture to say more than ut2k3, but only because ut2k3 the game doesnt really max out the capabilities of the engine.

for anyone that has a Visiontek Geforce 4, the fans on the heatsinks like to die, so watch out for that. I dont know if this goes for all the Ti's or just the 4200's but my 4200 and two of my friend's 4200's fans died all about the same time. I think we all bought the card like 4-5 months before the fans died. Just a heads up.

A Visiontek GeForce 3 Ti200, back during that Post-Thanksgiving sale a year and a half ago. Now that I have a job, I'm going to keep saving my money and holding out until Half-Life 2 rolls around... Or unless the Radeon 9800 non-pro comes down enough in price.

Intel 82810e and it totally integrated so I can't upgrade or run two video cards.

I just got a new system with the ati 9800 pro 128 in it. I have it on the same monitor I used with my old gforce 4 card. The ATI just has a better picture quality. Even at the same resolutions and even in normal desktop display.

ASUS 128Meg Ti4200 cuz it was cheap and it came with MORROWIND!

next up some ATI action when they drop into the *moderately rediculous* price range.

It's a shame that VOODOO computers is a customer of mine (I make some of the "tattoos" and graphics for their computers here in calgary) but i cannot afford their stuff
