Best Video Card???

Can anyone recomend the best video card for NR2002 and F12001.

Best is really a very subjective opinion, I will say my Geforce 3 Ti200 runs both very, very well. I also though have an Athlon XP1600+ chip and 512 mb ddr ram.

I have GF3 ti 200 and it overclocks nicely to 220/500 - almost Ti500 speed. I also have it paired with an XP1600+. The GF4 MX look like a waste of time not as good as GF2 ultra or GF3 (plain or ti`s) However, the non-mx versions look special - at a price. Personally, FPS per �/$ I think GF3 Ti200 is hard to beat especially when they oc so well. Karl. "Don Burnette" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BEcc8.29414$[email hidden]...

What kind of framerates are you getting? And detail settings? I bought the game and with the same video card, my PIII650 is woefully slow. Am looking at the Athlon 1600+ chip. I am stuck at about 30fps no matter settings. Bill

I wish both of you would include the BRAND NAME of the cards, when you tell us what you have. Not all geforce cards are built the same. Thanks to those who follow up.

If money is an issue go with the Gainward GeForce 3 TI200 (Which is actually the TI450 Golden Sample). If money isn't a question get the TI500. "BB" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:eFcc8.9955$[email hidden]... > Can anyone recomend the best video card for NR2002 and F12001. > >

F12001, around 70 fps with everything pretty much on high, 1280x960x32. N2002, around 50-70 fps, world detail medium, car details high, anisitropic filtering off, 1280x960x32. Don Burnette

Mine is a Hercules GF3 Ti200. Don Burnette "Plowboy" <Plowboy'[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I wish both of you would include the BRAND NAME of the cards, when youtell

Thanks Bill

one moment please do you mean to say ALL gainward GF3Ti200 is a golden sample ??? as far as I know the box would say " GOLDEN SAMPLE" if you missed that then the price tag would confirm that .........

Come on guys, ATI Radeon 8500 at 300/600 mhz. -- Johnny Ginette

Thanks Don, that is the big brother to what I have (geforce2 MX32), and I was thinking Hercules was still a premium performer and is not just cost more? Is that what you think?

> Come on guys, ATI Radeon 8500 at 300/600 mhz. Pfff .. yeah .. c'mon guys ... pony up another $360 ... we know just bought one 18 months ago but it's time again. And get the new processor and you'll need the DDR ram now to keep up and the NorthBridge/SouthBridge Bridge Over Troubled Waters Floating Point K2Dee sin tah gray Tor and.. make sure that image stays at 21" MAX. And you're sitting in an incredibly comfortable chair. I gave it up. I saw some game running on an X-Box and said "This is fucking stupid. For ten years I've been plowing $2000 in to my machine every 18 months and these kids come along and run this game at a frame rate like THAT with graphics like THAT for $300?? And it has an Ethernet port for on-line racing this summer? And a huge hard drive for custom stuff?" Pfff .. Forget it. I'll put it on my 61" Hi-Definition television with the component output from the thing and the fiber optic hook-in to my 6.1 Dolby system from it and sit in my La-Z-Boy next to the fire. Honestly ... I had been hardcore for 10 years until this wave of systems and said "Alright ...that's enough of this $399 for a new video card or $300 for an entire system" bullshit. I gave it up and I'm just not pouring money down a pit everytime another Nascar game comes out. In the end, it just ends up being stupid. I mean take an honest look at it and you'll eventually reach a logical conclusion, whether it's this year or next or the next but it'll hit you someday. Go ahead and pound me, I don't care. But someday, you'll eventually say "Well that was another $1200" and then be at some Wal-Mart and cock your head like a dog and it'll hit you like a new emotion.
