The radeon VE 64meg SDRAM and the Radeon 7500 64meg sdram?

i'd go for the 7500 :)

personaly, i like nvidia, but had to chose, 7500 :)

what do you mean better? better at 3d performance or better at doing dual display? some people argue that matrox does a better job at dual displays - but if you want a good 3d card definitely go with the 7500 - the ve is not even in the picture!

I really don't need better dual performance.. i just want to save space and for my computer.. Let me ask you right now I am running a voodoo 3 3000 agp..

Option 1:

Buy a Geforce 2 MX 200 PCI 32megs $32 dollars

Option 2:

Buy a ATI Radeon 7500 $58 dollars

Option 3:

Radeon VE 64 megs for $46.28

Now which option would you choose if you were in my situation..

Radeon 7500, unless you're just really on a budget, and then I would go with the geforce. Again, don't even look at the VE! You may wanna research some benchmarks, but i'm pretty sure the 7500 outperforms the mx200.

i think i'd still say yes to the radeon, but i'd probably research the benchmarks somewhere (like anandtech) and get a comparison - i'm not really sure offhand - the extra memory on that model would probably give it an edge in a few games with large amounts of textures, but there aren't too many of those. i'd say you're probably looking at similar performance either way.

I probbly am.. I was just having problems with XP this is why I am considering upgrading.... I have to test my system and see if it is just my video card that was messing up in xp to see if that was the only problem.. With my Voodoo 3 3000 it was freezing up in XP after it started and I would get no response out of the computer and I would have to press the reset button.
