Need a video card...

drummer87 · 12-11-2006, 03:29 AM

Hi,
I'm looking for a new video card that supports Shader Model 3.0 and has at least 256 MB. I'm playing Splinter Cell Double Agent and it won't run without SM3. We'll discuss payment options later. Also, it must be Pci-Express.
Thanks

An NVIDIA GeForce 6600 256MB would be ok.

The 6600 will play Splinter Cell on medium or even on low setting

Get 7600GT, it is much better than 6600

I've been looking all over for one, but, they tend to be pricey. So, i'll save up.
Thanks again.
