Video cards help

this is a subject in computers I have no knowledge about, but ya so what would be a great cheap video card i could get to play games and my comp to still run fast.
Answer #1
Your best choice right now is probably the 8800GT. An excellent GPU and you won’t find a better one for the price offered. However, if you wait a while, in about a month the new Nvidia 9 series should start being released and it the prices of the 8 series will probably go down. It’s your choice mate.
Good luck ^_^
Answer #2
the top line 6XXX series are good compared to the low end 7XXX series… they are pretty cheap… or lie said wait for the prices to drop on the 8XXX series
Answer #3
how much you want to spend ?
Answer #4
an good midranger is the nvidia 8800GT very good card with an good price. if the price is to high you should look for the ati 3870 what is also very good but an bit cheaper. about the 9 series, the midrange cards from the 9 series gonna be releases after the top model the 9800gtx2 or what ever it is, so that is gonna take an few months. <– this here is for PCI-e
well i yust think your computer maybe doesnt have PCI-e and have agp, then the best choice would be the ati 3850 agp model that sapphire is gonna release soon.
Answer #5
get a BFG 8600 GT OC.
Answer #6
What games do you plan on playing? nVidia FX5200s provide 128 MB of dedicated memory, and are dirt cheap. They handle HL2 and CS:S quite well if you have the right drivers installed. I personally use an 8600GT; I plan on testing Crysis and COD4 on it!

to see if your other stats (RAM, processor) will work. My 8600GT passes the test, so I imagine it’s enough to run on medium settings for a good framerate
