It'll be the geforce 4mx thats dragging your system down, they are not much better than a geforce 2

No problem. I dont have any money either now. Spent it all on this computer and now im trying to put some back in the bank, give me almost none for spending.

Hmmm my plans are never very good. Build fast computer for playing newer games, then when i finish, no money for new games. I think i need a job too...:sweat:

[sHaDoW hEal2t]

haha, yeah now it's just the small task of making $500 for a Geforce FX 5900 ultra. I fixed the codes in my sig, thanks

Could anyone tell me how well my computer would run FFXI with the GeForce FX 5200
here is the link if you would like to see it http://www.amamax.com/indv9gefx52a.html

Here is my computer as it is right now.

CPU: 1-Intel Pentium 4, 1.7GHz
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce2 MX/MX 400
RAM 512MB
an all im pullin is like 1622

I kinda been thinkin bout this for the passed few days now. An someone on FFXIonline.com irc channel found this card for me, an I just wanted to post it here to see what you all would think of it.

[HAGAKURE]

your graphic card will pull up that score +2500 at the least ...majority of your sepcs reach above requirement so it was the graphic card that was bringing you down...your new 5200 should do just find if you have a AGP slot

[sHaDoW hEal2t]

if you need a new graphics card but don't have the $$ for a 5900 ultra, which would be the best card for your money? that will run above the minimum requirements?

[Zynk]

Well what would be a really good card thats maybe under 130 or a bit more thats just bout all I have to buy a card with. An that would run FFXI good with not so much lag or anything. If you can help me pls do.

[Zynk]

I think I found a good card you all tell me whatca think bout it http://www.buyxtremegear.com/gain3.html an if I should buy it, an how will it would run on my system. Just to make sure here is the link to my mobo http://english.aopen.com.tw/products/mb/AX4TII.htm

[Sands.Of.Time]

sorry dude but the graphic card is 8x AGP like majority of graphic cards out today and your motherboard is 4 X AGP ... so that means the two arent compatible it's best if you get a new motherboard that supposrts 8X AGP ... go to www.newegg.com they usally have the best deals for anything

[sHaDoW hEal2t]

Does he need a new motherboard? the card he was looking at says that it supports 8x, 4x, and 2x AGP
