MSI nVidia GeForce FX 5700 LE 256 MB
or
Graphics Card EVGA nVidia GeForce FX 5700 LE 256 MB Graphics Card
or
ATI radeon 9250 PCI 256 mb??

I am looking for a PCI graphics card $90-$150. What is the best one of the above or what are some other good ones i could buy.(Preferrable working with battlefield 2)


Thanks for your help!!
 
DEFINETLY not the 9250... They are pretty bad cards. I just did a quick search for benchmarks and they were at the bottom of the list, with a 5750 near the top...

Now, I'm not quite sure the difference between those. I beleive the LE is a LowerEnd model, but I might be wrong... I've not been keeping up with these recently.

If I HAD to pick one, I'd go with the top, but you probably should double check me on those two nVidia's...
 
dafish, how much are you looking to spend? What can your motherboard support? The FX series hasn't the greatest reputation, either. At the time nVidia was making their FX series ATI was kicking their butts with their 9500 cards onward until nVidia's 6600 and 7800 cards came out. Now nVidia is kicking butt. And The_Other_One is correct about the LE being the lowest common denominator.
 
the LE's would be your best bet. and i've heard they have awesome OC'ing ability. OC one as far as u can safely, and u should be playing BF2 on lowest settings.

But he needs PCI and those are the highest PCI cards.
