If you can save up a little bit more money, get a 7300GS or an X700. That little bit more money will go a long way for performance.

sigh. i checked the price of the cards uv suggested and they are twice the price of my budget :blushing: so thats really out of my budget. above are th eonly choices i do have. :unsure:

You're not willing nor apparently financially situated enough to purchase a card suitable for the tasks you wish to accomplish. Save more money. I'd love to have a Raptor drive for $50 but that's absolutely out of the question.

Since it only has DDR that card is not a particularly good choice either. The memory bandwidth is so crippled that it won't be much better than the 6200 cards in the list with DDR2.

As we said, none of them are good choices so no one is willing to tell you "yeah, purchase this one and you'll be ok". Hardware is usually a long term purchase, especially if you're on a limited budget, so you sould save a little more and purchase something you'll be happy with and will last longer...instead of purchasing something you'll be "ok", or possibly disappointed, with.
