good graphics card?

i was looking at Komplett and came across this

is this any good, because it seems very cheap for a 128 mb card compared to other mx440 64mb cards?

aww! c'mon guys i thought you were the experts on this sort of stuff

give it a bit of time and you should find the answers

perhaps if you posted on the right board

at the moment theres a discussion about the geforce4 on technology. personally I think 128mb ram on an mx card is pointless due to the lower memory bandwidth on those particular cards.

Well....ive never seen a Geforce4 mx440 with 129mb of ram before. My one has only 64

...still it kicks ass

The Geforce4 mx440 is a good card.... and i would get one. Make sure your mobo can handle it though

prob better off getting a lower end ti, mx's won't be worth sh|t by the time doom 3 comes out (i'm probably wrong, but i feel a bit argumentative today)

Found this good link which shows how all the major graphics card scale with cpu. something worth bearing in mind.

the ti4200 did pretty sweet, nearly 200 fps in high detail

Radeon 8500 is cheap
Ti4200 is also cheap and a classy card

good graphics card?
