What 3D care are YOU using?
 
I upgraded my Geforce 4 Ti4200 64MB to a Radeon 9600 Pro 128 MB.

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.

I got a GeForce 4 Ti4200 128mb

It works for me at the mo.. when I've finished saving up for what I'm saving for I'll think of upgrading :D

bemick 06-29-2003 04:29 PM

I'm still stuck with a GeForce 3 :(

The_Dude 06-29-2003 04:37 PM

geforce 4 mx440 128mb.

i wish i hadnt bought this! about 2 months after i build the pc, i see this card out fx 5200 or so for about 99 bucks! damn!

YaWhateva 06-29-2003 05:44 PM

the FX 5200 is about on par with a Geforce 3 not worth the money.

Oh I have a Geforce 4 Ti 4200 128MB and am planning to upgrade to either a Radeon 9700 or 9800.

DHS 06-29-2003 06:04 PM

Ati Radeon 9500 Pro...

TerresqueÜ 06-29-2003 06:10 PM

Nvidia GF4 ti-4200 I'm pleased with it...

Conclamo Ludus 06-29-2003 06:13 PM

Hercules version of the Radeon 9700 Pro. Been very pleased with it. It's my first rig that I actually put together myself. Its got a really wicked looking copper fan but it faces the down so you can't see it in my window. :(

sandeep 06-29-2003 07:07 PM

When I bought my Radeon 9000 Pro 64meg card, the 9800 was just about to be released.

I paid $200 CAD for my card, and i'm quite happy with it. I can't afford to spend three or four hundred bucks on a new video card every few months. (although I'd love to be able to)

jerkstore 06-30-2003 12:22 AM

I'm totally wishing I had something decent...I'm still on a Radeon All-in-Wonder (yes, the original). If money were no object a 9700 AIW would be mine...

mrquackers 06-30-2003 02:06 AM

This machine? GeForce 4 Ti 4600. Second PC? GeForce 3. Third? ATI Radeon 9700 All in Wonder.

About to purchase? Radeon 9800 AIW

I'm something of a graphics whore. :)

Wombat 06-30-2003 03:33 AM

Still have a GF2 GTS Pro. It does the trick. :) I'll probably upgrade later this year.

zer010gic 06-30-2003 05:33 AM

I have a geforce 4 Ti4600 and it works for me well atleast right now

shalafi 06-30-2003 07:53 AM

damn now i feel all inadequate and stuff w/ my trust old tnt2 hehe

ZeroDoom 06-30-2003 08:29 AM

I have a first day Radeon 9700 pro it took me 3 days to get it running right but it was well worth the work.

zcwrx 06-30-2003 10:51 AM

9800pro 128mb here.. W00t w00t!

Lasereth 06-30-2003 12:38 PM

GeForce 4 TI 4200 128 MB version, 4x AGP. I'm happy with it, even though I'll probably upgrade to a GeForce FX 5900 or Radeon 9800 Pro pretty soon.

NeverBorn 06-30-2003 02:09 PM

my good old GeForce 2..

XcaliberZ 06-30-2003 02:43 PM

Ti-4600, next computer I build will have a DX9 card.

butthead 06-30-2003 03:44 PM

GF4 MX440 64mb

I am displeased. Came with the computer though and will be the next thing to be upgraded.

butthead 06-30-2003 03:45 PM

Before that i had a voodoo2

lol @ sli mode

i pity the foos who busted their ass to have two voodoo2 cards for what it was worth at the time, but i then again we dont have the games we do now

Blankfore12 06-30-2003 04:44 PM

GeForce3 Ti200 128mb.... hoping for a new ATI Radeon 9800 Pro!

Nikilidstrom 06-30-2003 05:07 PM

Still clunking along with my GF 2 Ti, but amazingly enough, it is just now begining to show its age. I was going to upgrade today, but it was a toss up between new card or 120gb hard drive, and the drive won.

Hydralisk 06-30-2003 05:18 PM

AIW Radeon 9700 pro

they really need to make the installation easier. or better yet, totally automated.

Mr.Deflok 06-30-2003 05:35 PM

LeadTek GeForce 4 Ti4200 128mb

Will be going go a 9700 Pro or an FX5900 later on... unless something else tickles my fancy.

GakFace 06-30-2003 07:58 PM

in this shitty backup computer?

NONE!!! which explains why i haven't been gaming much lately :(

fnaqzna 06-30-2003 09:48 PM

Geforce4 Ti4400 does fine here.

LaZy 06-30-2003 10:08 PM

cpugamerbb 07-01-2003 05:38 PM

I just purchase a 9600 at comp-usa for like $220 with 2 year warranty, when I get more money I think I may say it's broken and pay the difference... but the 9600 is VERY pleasing.... almost as good as a lady friend.... almost.

Justin 07-01-2003 07:03 PM

I have a Albatron ti4600 128mb. I'm actually glad of getting that instead of a gfx.

R_one 07-01-2003 10:12 PM

Geforce Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb. A killer beast with no regard for life. Nothing out there slows it down.

m2k 07-01-2003 11:36 PM

GeForce4 Ti4200 128MB VIVO

Spritebox 07-02-2003 01:56 AM

Geforce 4 MX 64 mb...


It makes a horrible high-pitched noise 24/7.

Very, very horrible.

No complaints.

flamingpeach 07-02-2003 07:38 AM

Geforce4 Mx 440 64mb

it's alright. I won't get the full effect of using it until i get a better monitor. My 15 inch LCD isnt cutting it.

zztzed 07-02-2003 08:19 AM

Radeon 8500. The original 64MB one. I got it right after it was released (luckily, it was released shortly before my birthday).

It is beginning to show its age a bit (especially in UT2k3), but I'll probably stick with it until HL2 comes out.
