I was just wondering what graphics cards you guys are running, and also if anyone can recommend a decent graphics card that would cost around the ?100 mark.

I have previously used nvidia but this time I think I am going to go for an ATI.

Any recommendations would be much appreciated.

I currently have the Hercules Radeon 9800pro - it RoX!

If you can stretch to c?150 you can have one of these excellent cards too... Connect3D ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB @ http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatal...00_Series.html

heres my recently graphic card


Chipset 1
Model : Elitegroup Computer Sys 82865G/PE/P, 82848P DRAM

Please put your kind consideration on your Physical Ram speed too.
the faster the card can GO the faster the RAM needs to GO too

here the data :

Chipset 1
Model : Elitegroup Computer Sys 82865G/PE/P, 82848P DRAM Controller / Host-Hub Interface
Front Side Bus Speed : 4x 217MHz (868MHz data rate) - OVERCLOCK
Total Memory : 1024MB DDR-SDRAM
Memory Bus Speed : 2x 217MHz (434MHz data rate) - OVERCLOCK

What about the Sapphire Radeon 9800 pro atlantis. Would this stand any chance of coping with the likes of Doom 3?

That graphics card will cope very nicely with Doom3 and the game that the 9800pro was invented for, Half-Life 2 !!

Is that the 128 card?.

I am currently overhauling my pc. I have just bought a new dvd writer (NEC 3500), and am going to buy an amd 3200 64 and a suitable motherboard in a couple of weeks. Ive already got some new kingston ram for the new board.

I was going to get an xp3200 but i decided for the extra ?50 or ?60 it would cost it would be more worthwile going 64.

If only I could afford to upgrade that damn crt monitor as well !!!
