New Vid Card

JFHuff · 11-18-2006, 06:17 PM

Im looking for a new video card to play bf2, bf 2142, and maybe some FEAR if i buy the game. The current one (in my sig) get me by but i get incredible amounts of lag in bf2. Im looking for a vid card that can play any of those games on say medium settings (id be happy with high though) with no lag. budget is around $200-$300 but id prefer it to be closer to the 200 side. Thanks all!

The x1900XT or 7900GTO would be great choices for around $200-$250.

Or $250-$300

You can't usually get them for under $250 very easily, unless prices have dropped in the past 24 hours...

Also, add more RAM because games like bf 2142 and FEAR takes a lot of RAM
