Quick Video Card Question


Recommended Posts

Alright I am finally going to splurge and get rid of my TNT2. I was considering getting the PNY Ti4200 with 64 Ram ($170) or the PNY Ti4400 with 128 Ram ($200) at Best Buy. I was wondering if any of you gamers have them and is there a huge diffence between the two besides the difference in RAM. I play these games all the time so take it into consideration:

Half-Life and mods

(GTA 3, which currently does not work on my TNT2 even though I meet the requirements on the box :( )

Operation Flashpoint

Return To Castle Wolfenstein

Tribes 2

Unreal Tournament

UT2k3 when it comes out

I hopefully want to run these at a 1024x768x32 resolution with all of the bells and whistles on. Please do not give me other video card suggestions because if it were up to me I would have gotten a low end Elsa card for $400, but I am not willing to spend that much. Also tell me if you have had any problems with these cards and that I should definetely not buy them.

to be honest, there's no real reason to get 128MB version if you are only going to play in 1024x768.

besides, you will surely get much more oc room if you get the 64MB version. clock speeds up to at least a 4400 is almost always guranteed.

For such a small price difference I would go for the ti4400. It will have more overclocking headroom on the memory, and also you can't beat double the video ram for only 30 dollars. I only warn you that if you have a cramped case then the ti 4200 may be a better option because it is smaller.
