Need help with a GPU

korhal · Aug 2, 2012, 03:08 AM

I need something that is a little better than an ATI Radeon x1800, that is a decent price.
PCI-e
with 256mb of vid ram or better

If you are looking to post to buy... you need to be in the B/S/T section.

If you are asking for advice on a card, then a little more info on the system and the use of the card may be of benefit.

And, any card has a decent price... in the price range of the card.

I just wanted to know what the next step up from it is. Pretty sure that's what I said on OP.

What are the rig specs ? Can't be the one in your specs lol

95Viper · Aug 2, 2012, 03:30 AM

What is your price point?
What PSU is going to be feeding it.
You want AMD or NVidia?
