Okay, I'm trying to find a video card.
I have no clue what video cards are good and what not. I don't need anything over the top. My computer is being used for general use. Some programming, little gaming, music and watching movies. I want to keep it under 100. The cheaper the better. I think probably like 75 and under.
I know AVI and Nvidia are good chipsets, but I don't know how to shop for video cards.
I'm not sure if I should go with a PCI Express or an AGP card.

I'm going to be buying from a store near me or Newegg.

 

Well, what motherboard do you have?

 

marshy, i didn't realize you were such a noob

 

Voodoo 3000 FTW

 

You able to use PCI E x16?

This is what I have: http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16814150130 $109 after MIR $129.99 in cart. Ill be buying another soon to SLI them. One will have you play NFSMW max, BF2 medium, Doom max.. you get the picture.

Thoughts?

 

that works, as long as you dont plan on playing BF2 and the likes

 

I know but its just out of my price range unfortunetly. My gfs birthday is right around the corner and I'm about to buy her present and I can't swing all this. I still need to buy ram too.(I found a sale for 1 gig DDR400 for 89 bucks.)


Edit: Oooh, ninja edit.
