D3ads Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Right I can take back the GF 6200 I got and get a refund allowing me to choose another card, I know I was recommended the GF 6800 but which model?! I have an AGP slot not PCI express so it's proving a bit difficult. I've found this model: http://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.asp?sku=317265&cks=NWP Does that look ok? I want something high-end whilst not costing too much, £200 and a bit more would be enough. I also don't want a dud model with a lower clockspeed than other models of this type, if you get where I'm coming from... I'm useless with GFX cards Quote

⌐■_■ Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 The BFG GeForce 6800 GS OC (1st one) seems to deliver the biggest bang for your buck. Apart from the fact that it has higher clockspeeds, it also has a lifetime warranty. Also be sure to check it's requirements. You might want to buy a new power supply. Quote

My relevant specs are: Pentium 4 3.2GHZ 1GB RAM DVD-RW / CD-RW 120GB HD Not sure what the powerpack is, I know it's very powerful though, I'll have to double check... Quote
⌐■_■ Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Just checked. The BFG GeForce 6800 GS OC needs a 450W power supply. You don't need to worry about the rest of your specs at all. That's perfectly fine. Quote
Dr.DK Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Buy a Zalman graphics card cooler too, because my 6800 sounds like it's vacuum cleaning the room. Quote
